Deniz Undav scores and assists as Germany beat Curaçao 7-1

Germany defeated Curaçao 7-1 in their World Cup opener. Former Union Berlin striker Deniz Undav scored and provided two assists.

The result marks a better start than Germany's previous two World Cups. Curaçao is not a typical opponent, and future matches will test whether Germany can shed its 'tournament chicken' label referenced by Gary Lineker.
