Germany took the lead in the 30th minute when Florian Wirtz’s sumptuous pull back set up Undav, who dispatched his effort with aplomb. Tim Kleindienst looked to have doubled the visitors’ advantage, only for his strike to be ruled out for offside but Undav made no mistake in the 36th minute when he tucked home Maximilian Mittelstadt’s superb cross into the six-yard box. The Stuttgart forward thought he had grabbed a hat-trick but Kleindienst was offside in the build-up again, and then Serge Gnabry also had a goal chalked off for the same reason. Veteran Edin Djeko pulled a goal back with a well guided header 20 minutes from time to set up an exciting finale. Both sides had chances to either win it or secure an equaliser respectively but in the end, Julian Nagelsmann’s side held at Stadium Bilino Polje to inch closer to the quarter-finals of the Nations League on Friday night.
