More goals mean more excitement. Following the five goals on Friday, Germany is the favorite for the title of the highest-scoring team of the tournament (2.2). All top German scorers scored on Friday, meaning that Havertz (13), Wirtz (18), and Füllkrug (20) now have better chances to finish the tournament as top scorers.
