The match ended 1-o in favour of Germany who are the current Defending champion For The World Cup

Germany is the third European country to win the Confederation cup after Denmark and France

Chile’s defender Diaz made a silly mistake in concentration that allows Timo Werner got the ball, draw the goalkeeper and pass to Stindl, who played into an empty net on 20 minutes just shortly after Alexis Sanchez missed a beautiful chance to give Chile the lead.

As stated earlier, this is the first time Germany, the defending world champions of the 2014 World Cup, will be winning The Fifa Confederations Cup which is in its eight seasons.

The video assistant referee (VAR) again came into the spotlight as Chile’s Gonzalo Jara was lucky not to be sent off in the second half.

It was a match that was almost dominated by Chile, with Alex Sanchez and Arturo Vidal threatening the German attack especially in the dying minutes of the match.

For the finals, Chile maintained the same first eleven that went passed Portugal 3-0 on a penalty shootout after 120 minutes of goalless draw.

Germany, on the other hand, made only one change from the starting eleven that beat Mexico 4-1 in the last four.
