A dark history haunts the cars… Germany’s worst World Cup streak in history

Germany continued their defensive bleeding at the World Cup after conceding an early goal against Ecuador to equal their worst losing streak in the tournament’s history.

Nelson Angulo scored for the Germans in the 9th minute in the third and final round of the group stage, who took advantage of teammate Pedro Vitti’s decisive pass to equalize after Manchester United had taken the lead through Leroy Sane’s goal, set up by Florian.

9 matches without a clean sheet

According to the French “Statsfoot” network specializing in football statistics, Germany has conceded at least one goal in the last 9 matches of the World Cup.

The network noted that the streak is tied for the worst defensive record by Germany in World Cup history, dating back to its first nine games in the tournament between May 1934 and June 1954.

The negative number reflects the real defensive crisis the four-time world champions are experiencing as they look to cement their lead in Group Five, which also includes Ivory Coast, Ecuador and Curacao.
