Germany took the lead in the 33rd minute from a penalty, but it was the chances to score they didn't take that came back to haunt them.

After the break, Japanese goalkeeper Shuichi Gonda made four consecutive saves at one point- and then, the tide turned.

Japan's Substitute Ritsu Doan scored from a rebound in the 75th minute to level the scores.

And, eight minutes later, Takuma Asano- who plays his club football in Germany- produced the winning goal.

Japan 2, Germany 1 the final score.
