It's never easy to start in the world cup as the leading contender.
Some people may disagree with that but as the current titleholder and players like Germany have you are one of the major contenders.
And winning against a nation like Germany is the goal of everyone.
Yes, also Germany disappointed in their first match.
I was surprised by their defense. In my eyes, the counter attacks of the Mexican team was too simple. This game had too often 1vs1, 2vs2, 3vs2 situations. On that kind of level, those situations are deadly. And we saw it in the game.
One thing Mexico did really well. They cut one of the most import players out. For me, Toni Kroos is one crucial players. Vela did a great job to disturb him when Germany was building up. And yes, we have to admit that they are a good team; definitely, they are and in summon they deserved winning this game.
Germany has definitely to improve themselves, but as I said in the previous post it was the first game it's it was not as expected but now they know that now they have to win the next game.
Lossing your first game in a match kills the moral of the players and in a crucial competition like the world cup where every games matters a lot. You need to work really hard to win your next two matches and at the same time pray for your opponent to loss point.
For me Germany needs to work harder more than 200 percent if they want to qualify for the next round

Germany didn’t get the flow they usually have and they were not playing in sync. I wouldn’t say they played perticularly bad it was just that Mexico played surprisingly well, their counter attack was deadly. Sweden is also in the same group and I must say it’s a tough one ☝️

Germany losing to Mexico, Iceland stopping Argentina, Switzerland stopping Brazil... I like this World Cup so far!
It's a bit boring to watch and wait for either Germany or Brazil to win it.
Today, the Germans didn't look well. You could see a defeat in their eyes ~85' which is strange. Germany I know fights till the end.

Football has changed, not like before that before the match is played you have already known the winner,just like what happens to Brazil this evening.

Another splendid analysis. Germany had serious issues with their defense line and I hope they work on it by their next game. This said, this world cup is full of surprises and many more will come.

Germany slumped to a defeat in opening match I can't believe my eyes until the match ended, they couldn't even net. I think big name doesn't have to answer to the World Cup, though we can't tell yet.

This world cup shows the difference between club side and country side.the names we got here is from the club not the country ,and I believe that thing will surely change for Germany and the issue with Leroy sane might be a problem too,they have tge players needed so next game will be hot for Sweden.
This world cup is sweet.

I think I was more surprised with Argentina not winning easily against Iceland than with Germany result. Obviously I wouldn't dare to predict germany to lose, but they are no longer the super team they were, and Mexicans are reaching one of their best team ever.
I think they will be able to go through very easy anyways, but that game could very well been the decider of first place. Argentina, was a surprise because Messi had the win on his foot. I guess is was not meant to be!

Due to this defeat Germany will be playing with the back against the wall against Sweden. If they fail to win and Mexico does win against South Korea, which is expected. They could be the next World Champions not be able to qualify for the second round!
If the above scenario will happen, probably Mexico and Sweden will play for the draw, eliminating Germany!
To be honest, we (Belgium) did win but it wasn't a great game! For sure in the first halve where the pace of the game was just too slow!
But for us a win against Tunisia, will mean that the qualification for next round will be a fact!
Good luck against Sweden, for some reason I do think that Germany will need some luck!
Cheers,
Peter

I'm totally agree with your point of view. France also experienced similar situation while they play against Senegal. For me... this is the most shocking FIFA World Cup round so far. Some 'David' punching some 'Goliath".
