South Korea stunned Germany with two late goals

Sweden's 3-0 victory over Mexico meant Germany needed just one goal to take the Central American nation's place in the Round of 16.

They were knocking on the door in the final stages but couldn't find the breakthrough and it allowed a gap for their opposition to pounce.

Soutk Korea whipped a corner into the box which fell to Kim Young-Gwon who controlled the ball well before jabbing it into the top corner to make it 1-0.

The offside flag was promptly raised but after a VAR review, the goal was given after the ball come off Toni Kroos first.

It meant Germany needed to score two goals in the final stages to stand any chance of making it out of the group.

They sent goalkeeper Manuel Neuer up for a corner but it would prove fateful as South Korea capitalised to grab their second. 

Ju robbed the ball off Neuer before sending a long path upfield for Son Hueng-Min, who managed to reach it before tapping into an empty net.

The goal left no time for Germany to claw the deficit back and the defending champions were sent to an early exit for the first time since 1938.
