An interesting situation arose before the fourth round of the European qualifying group A stage. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

Three teams, namely Germany, Northern Ireland, and Slovakia, each had six points. On Monday, the teams of Germany and Northern Ireland played a match in Belfast.

The opening goal came in the 31st minute of the game, scored by German player Nik Voltemade. After a corner kick from the left wing, he accurately directed the ball to the left corner, making the score 0-1.

The hosts were denied a penalty opportunity during the match; after consulting with the video assistants, the referee did not award a penalty. The German team controlled the ball more and dominated the game.

Northern Ireland tried to create chances to equalize in the final minutes of the match, but the ball was not accurately directed towards the goal. The hosts came close to scoring in some situations, but the referees disallowed goals due to offside and other rule violations.

At the end of the match, the German national team maintained their narrow victory on the field and reached 9 points in the group. Northern Ireland remains at 6 points.

In the upcoming matches, both teams will face Luxembourg and Slovakia. This match is an important stage of the qualifying round, with teams striving to improve their performance.
