German football fans in tears as national team is knocked out the World Cup

Both Germany and South Korea will need to win here to secure their place in the round of 16. Although the defending World Cup champions currently sit in second place in Group F they are still at risk of not making it through to the knockout stage.

Bottom of the group South Korea will need to win this game and hope that Sweden lose to Mexico to be in with a chance of qualifying for the next stage of the tournament.

Last week Germany got a goal five minutes into injury time that lead to them beating Sweden 2-1. Germany will be without defender Jérôme Boateng after he received a second yellow card for a challenge on Swedish striker Marcus Berg. Sebastian Rudy is also expected to miss Wednesday’s game after having suffered a broken nose against Sweden.
