Germany win the FIFA Confederations Cup & add it to the Under 21 titles.

###Both Germany & Chile have never reached the Final of a FIFA confederations cup ever!

This final was super exciting, but Chile will most definitely be upset that they came away with nothing. A fatal Error from Marcel Diaz in defence cost them an early goal and they failed to make something count even whilst dominating the entire first half!

Towards the last 29 minutes of the second half Chiles players lost their cool and made way too many wild tackles, too many arguments with German players. The time was ticking down and when they got into this vibe they were never going to get back into the game!

Germany deserves as much credit as is due to them, they playerd with their B team throughout the tournament and beat an excellent defensive, back to back Copa America winners, Chile side and held their cool throughout the match! Well done to Germany.
