The Germans secured a 7-1 victory over Curaçao thanks to a two-goal performance from Kai Havertz, while Ivory Coast beat Ecuador 1-0 in their opening match. Earlier, undefeated Sweden face a Dutch side needing to respond after dropping points in a 2-2 draw against Japan, with Alexander Isak and Yasin Ayari leading a Swedish attack that beat Tunisia by five on the opening day. All four matches are broadcast on FOX or FS1 and streamed live on FOX One.
World Cup program for Saturday June 20
Netherlands vs Sweden
Player to watch
The Liverpool striker was electric for Sweden in their opening 5-1 win over Tunisia. Isak scored a goal and added two assists as he regularly broke through the Tunisian defense using his speed and skill. But facing the Dutch defense is a test on another level. If Isak succeeds, Sweden could achieve a surprising result. He will know what he will be up against as he will likely have several opportunities to face his Liverpool teammate Virgil van Dijk.
Germany vs. Ivory Coast
Player to watch
The Ivorian teenage winger is well known to German fans as he was one of the best young players in the Bundesliga this season with RB Leipzig. Known for his explosive speed, skillful dribbling and ability to finish with both feet, Diomandé will be a handful of defenders to defend for Germany.
He also brings with him a unique background that saw him move to Florida in the United States as a teenager. It was there that he played for Yulee High School and joined DIME Academy, a private athletic training club located in Daytona Beach. It’s hard to believe that one of the best teenagers in football was recently playing high school football. But now he has a chance to face one of the most successful national teams in the world.
Ecuador vs. Curaçao
Player to watch
Ecuador’s all-time leading scorer is the player to watch in this matchup, as the team needs to score early and often against Curacao to secure three points and create a positive goal differential. Valencia has won 106 caps for Ecuador and his next goal will be his 50th international goal. This could very well happen against Curaçao.
Tunisia vs Japan
Player to watch
The left striker has enjoyed great success for Japan with 11 goals in 26 caps since his debut in 2023. Against the Netherlands, he scored his team’s first goal to tie the match at 1-1. Japan is struggling through adversity due to injuries and the likely loss of Kubo will put a lot of responsibility on players like Nakamura. But with Tunisia’s confidence shattered, he could have opportunities to do damage. Tunisia proved vulnerable against speedy Swedish players such as Alexander Isak. Perhaps Nakamura could find a similar level of success in this game.
