Colombia Stun Germany 2-0 as Juan Cuadrado Shines in Historic Friendly Win

News 18  

Juan Cuadrado scored one goal and set up another for Colombia to beat Germany 2-0 in a friendly Tuesday and deepen the sense of crisis around the German team one year before the country hosts Euro 2024. Colombia’s win was its first ever over Germany, a four-time world champion that appears to have forgotten how to win games. Germany, which flopped at the World Cup with a second straight group-stage exit, has won only three of its 11 games this season under coach Hansi Flick — an ultimately futile win over Costa Rica at the World Cup, and two friendly victories over Peru and Oman. Colombia remained the better team and deservedly went ahead in the 54th when Cuadrado whipped in a perfect cross for Díaz to head past ter Stegen.
