Germany stars suffered humiliation again failing to make it out of the group stages at a second successive World Cup.
Hansi Flick's side were highly-fancied to progress from a group that included Spain, Costa Rica and Japan - but found themselves packing their bags on a night of controversy in Qatar. Their win over Costa Rica was immaterial due to Japan's surprise - and opinion-splitting - win against Spain.
It was the Japanese who first set alarm bells ringing for the Germans, scoring twice late on to cause a massive shock in the opening days of the tournament. Germany battled back to claim a point against Spain, but their win on Thursday night also needed other results to go for them, which they didn't.
