Germany made history on Sunday afternoon at the World Cup Final in Rio de janeio, by becoming the first European nation to lift the World Cup in South America.
The big game held at Maracana Stadium was won by Germany’s Mario Goetze in extra-time.
Goetze controlled a cross with his chest in the 113th minute and volleyed the ball past goalkeeper Sergio Romero and inside the far post from five yards out.
“It’s an unbelievable feeling. I don’t know how to describe it. You just shoot that goal in, you don’t really know what’s happening,” said Goetze. “And then at the end of the match, having a party with the team, the whole country … it is for us, a dream come true.”
The goal gave Germany their fourth World Cup title, making them second with Italy on the list of all-time champions and behind Brazil’s five titles.
