Live descriptive stats
Predicted = the pre-match model's expected goals; actual = xG created so far. A calibration read, not a forecast.
Descriptive only — the pre-match probability tile above does not change during the match.
Analysis
How it plays out
Both sides run a possession dominant system, so this becomes a test of who executes the same ideas better on the day. Ivory Coast's aggressive press (PPDA 13.7) against Germany's deeper build-up (PPDA 17.8) creates a clear territory question: can Ivory Coast force errors high up, or will Germany play through the press and find space behind it?
What decides it
Both sides run the same system (possession dominant), so execution quality separates them, not tactical asymmetry. The scoring threat is evenly split: Niclas Füllkrug (6.2%) and Franck Kessié (8.3%).
Off the pitch
No major off-pitch asymmetries. This one is decided by the football.
The angle
The model's 29th-ranked side against the 6thth. Group stages reward the underdog who executes a clear plan.
