Fine link-up play between the two Werkself youngsters on 21 minutes put head coach and former Bayer 04 professional Christian Wörns’ side ahead against a combative Welsh side – Culbreath set up Onyeka. Nine minutes later, Culbreath then scored himself to make it 2–0 at half-time. Germany continued to dominate after the break and extended their lead to 4–0 through Otto Stange (58) and Jykese Fields (90+3). Onyeka once again played the full 90 minutes, whilst Culbreath was substituted in the 85th minute.
