Ruthless Germany brush aside Northern Ireland to book World Cup spot
Holders Germany secured their place at next year’s World Cup with a convincing 3-1 win over Northern Ireland in their qualifier at Windsor Park.A stunning strike from Sebastian Rudy after less than two minutes set the tone for a dominant first-half display by the world champions and Sandro Wagner, who also hit the post, added a second.Play-off chasing Northern Ireland, who remain second in Group C, hit the bar through Conor Washington but the outstanding Joshua Kimmich made victory certain before Josh Magennis’ injury-time consolation.More to follow???? It may have been a consolation but it was still amazing to see the #GAWA cheering on a goal against the World Champions! ???????? #DareToDream pic.twitter.com/haedtucajn— Northern Ireland (@NorthernIreland) October 5, 2017(function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
