Pre-match analysis

How Germany vs Cote d'Ivoire sets up

🇩🇪Germany

Germany will look to set the tempo, control the opening exchanges, and build through midfield and wide pressure.

🇨🇮Cote d'Ivoire

Cote d'Ivoire will aim to stay compact, frustrate the press, and threaten on quick transitions and set pieces.

What to watch: the first duel after every turnover, set-piece quality at both ends, and which manager blinks first on substitutions as the game opens up.
