International round-up: Entertaining clash of World Cup winners

The 2014 World Cup winners against the 2010 World Cup winners: This attractive fixture certainly lived up to its promise for at least 70 minutes.

After just six minutes, a brilliant pass from Andrés Iniesta put Rodrigo Moreno through to open the scoring in front of a 50,000 crowd in Düsseldorf. FC Bayern's Thomas Müller levelled on 35 minutes with his 38th international goal –  with a great shot from 20 yards out into the roof of the net.

Julian Baumgartlinger lead Austria to a 3-0 win against Slovenia with goals from David Alaba and Marko Arnautovic (2). The Bayer 04 player provided the assist for the third goal and was taken off just before the end of the game that saw him receive a rousing reception from the 18,000 fans as he left the pitch in Klagenfurt. Panos Retsos played for Greece in a 1-0 defeat to Switzerland with a goal from Blerim Dzemaili. The Werkself defender played the full 90 minutes for Michael Skibbe's team. Joel Pohjanopalo was unable to find the back of the net for Finland against Macedonia in a 0-0 draw.

The U 21s play Kosovo next on Tuesday at 18.45 CET. 

The Germany U19s had a convincing win in the European Championship qualifiers. The team under coach Meikel Schönweitz gave Scotland no chance in a 3-0 victory. In front of a 2,500 crowd in Lippstadt, the skipper Kai Havertz went close to scoring on 22 minutes  when he hit the woodwork. Germany's number 10 was at the centre of many successful attacking moves. Havertz played for 79 minutes before being replaced by his Bayer 04 team-mate Sam Schreck. Atakan Akkaynak also came on with seven minutes to play. Germany are second in their four-team group behind Holland who registered a 6-1 victory over Norway in their first match.
