Restart succeeds: The Germany 21s, with Lennart Grill in goal, have taken an important step towards qualification for the European Championships. The team led by Germany coach Stefan Kuntz beat Moldova 4-1 and go into the showdown with Belgium as league leaders.
Mergim Berisha (10’), Lukas Nmecha (62’ pen.), Nico Schlotterbeck (74’) and Florian Krüger (79’) with his first touch after coming off the bench in Wiesbaden scored for the superior but often ineffective European Championship runners-up late-on with the new Leverkusen player Grill going the full distance. Germany top Group 9 on nine points ahead of rivals Belgium (7) with the two sides meeting in Heverlee on Tuesday, 8 September. Only the group winners will definitely qualify for the 2021 Euros.
