World champions Germany
secured a first confederation cup title after a 1 – 0 victory over Chile in
Sundays final in St Petersburg.
The Chilean team
started brightly and wasted a lot of goal-scoring chances but were a goal down
in the 20th minute when Borussia Monchengladbach forward Stindl
tapped home against the run of play after a defensive blunder midway through
the first half.
The final was a highly entertaining
final, but Chile would really be disappointed to come away with nothing. A terrible error from Marcelo Diaz cost them
the game, as well as their inability to make their dominance count in the first
half.
The German’s deserve some credit nevertheless,
the team were young and inexperienced, yet, they came to this competition with
huge expectations as World Champions and they still delivered.
