Germany<\/a>‘s game against Cura\u00e7ao<\/a> proved even more of a mismatch, as goals from Felix Nmecha<\/a>, Nico Schlotterbeck<\/a>, Jamal Musiala<\/a>, Nathaniel Brown<\/a>, Deniz Undav<\/a> and a brace from Kai Havertz<\/a> saw Julian Nagelsmann’s side beat the Caribbean nation 7-1.
The Ivory Coast<\/a> took a big step towards ending their World Cup curse as they ended up winning a game that looked destined to be a 0-0 draw right up until the final minute of normal time.

We could see another mismatch in the first of tonight’s games as Spain<\/a> take on Cape Verde<\/a>, although there was good news for Bubista’s side as Spain head coach Luis de la Fuente suggested that Lamine Yamal<\/a> is set to start on the bench despite being in “perfect condition.”
Monday night’s headline tie is Belgium<\/a> against Egypt<\/a>, with former Liverpool<\/a> man Mohamed Salah<\/a> aiming to make his mark on the World Cup following a disappointing final season at Anfield.
Later, Saudi Arabia<\/a> take on Uruguay<\/a> and Iran<\/a> face New Zealand<\/a>.
