 Havertz was named the best player of the Germany vs. Curaçao match

Kai Havertz was named man of the match after Germany beat Curaçao 7-1 in their latest World Cup 2026 group game.

The forward scored Germany’s first and last goals, converting a penalty in first-half stoppage time and adding another in the 88th minute. FIFA’s technical panel chose him as the standout player.

Germany controlled the scoreline and continued their run in the group stage with a heavy win over Dick Advocaat’s side.

Their next fixture comes against Ivory Coast on 20 June, before they face Ecuador on 24 June.
