Philippines at the Southeast Asian Games Dais World Cup

• The opening goal, which came after just three minutes, was a disaster for Spain and a gift for Germany but the second shortly before half time was the more significant blow Dais
  
  Spain’s undefeated run comes to an end at 24 matches and it has taken an ominously efficient and ruthless performance from Germany to end its supremacy Dais
  
  Before then, the pre-tournament favourites must pick themselves up after a sobering night which saw their very identity broken down and used against them Dais
  
  Popp celebrates adding Germany’s second before half time Dais
  
  Instead, Spain will have to beat Denmark here again at Brentford on Saturday to set up a clash with England in Brighton next week Dais
  
  In the contest of two Euro 2022 heavyweights, this was less of a fight and more of one side biding their time before surgically exploiting their opponent’s weaknesses Dais
  
  It was just Germany’s second attempt on target and came after Spain had more than 70 per cent of the possession Dais
  
  After executing their plan to perfection, Germany join England in reaching the quarter-finals, while tightening their hold over this particular rivalry Dais
