The Real Madrid star had a classy performance on his return to the German team.
It is easy to affirm that the epic match between France and Germany is the most anticipated match in this national team gathering.
While the Tanks are still looking for stability under coach Julian Nagelsmann, with home field advantage, it is obvious that the Roosters are the team that is more appreciated.
However, the surprise soon happened at Lyon after just a few seconds of the match, with Florian Wirtz scoring the opening goal.
In the 49th minute, Kai Havertz shined and sealed the final 2-0 victory for the away team.
Although he did not directly score, it is easy to confirm that Toni Kroos is one of the best players on the German team in this match.
Not only was he the author of the assist that led to Wirtz opening the score, Kroos also delivered a “superior” performance in his first match for Germany since 2021.
Data from Fotmob shows that the Real Madrid star has excellently fulfilled the role of “conductor” with 122/129 accurate passes – more than any other player on both teams.
In particular, he had 2 passes to create scoring opportunities, 17 passes into the final third of the field (the most in the match) and 6 passes that crossed the line at the right address.
In addition, Kroos also made his mark with 145 touches, 9 ball recoveries, 3/3 accurate tackles and 6 duels won.
With a score of 8.7, he is also the player with the highest score in the match.
