Kai Havertz scores as Germany leads early against USA in friendly

Summary

Germany faced the USA in a friendly match on June 6, 2026, and took the lead just two minutes into the game. Following a free-kick taken by Joshua Kimmich, Kai Havertz was able to nod the ball into the net, capitalizing on a disoriented US defense. Although Germany appeared to extend their lead with an additional goal, it was ruled out due to the ball having gone out of play prior to the cross. The match is ongoing, and both teams are looking to establish rhythm ahead of their upcoming competitions.
