Germany and South Korea had 3 meetings previously. These two nations have faced in the World Cup two times and both the times Germany has defeated South Korea by a small margin. South Korea had a positive result on one friendly meeting on which they defeated Germany by 3-1 in 2004.
The defending champions have a very balanced team but have failed to show their quality in this World Cup. One of the favorites to win the final, Germany were defeated by Mexico in the first game and had a very difficult win against Sweden in the second match.
Germany is expected to have an easy win against South Korea on June 27. This will be a must-win game for the European giants so they are expected to make a spectacular return to their previous form.
