Chelsea fans react after Timo Werner’s horror miss for Germany vs North Macedonia

Chelsea fans react after Timo Werner’s horror miss for Germany vs North Macedonia

Sep 20, 2024 3:24 PM

A selection of Chelsea fans on Twitter produced a mixed reaction after Timo Werner’s spectacular miss during Germany’s shock defeat to North Macedonia last night.

Germany suffered a 2-1 loss at home in their third World Cup qualifying game, but things could have been different had Werner scored.

Goran Pandev gave the visitors the advantage just moments before the interval. Ilkay Gundogan levelled the scores shortly after the hour mark via the penalty spot.

In the 79th minute, Werner had a simple tap-in chance, but he scuffed his left-footed shot wide off the mark to the astonishment of some Macedonia players.

Ultimately, the 2014 World Cup champions paid the price for the miss as the visitors went on to secure an unlikely victory after Eljif Elmas scored in the 85th minute.

Germany are now third in their World Cup qualifying group, three points behind leaders Armenia, who have made the perfect start.

It is still too early in the qualifying phase, but Joachim Loew’s side have gone to their old habits of missing chances and conceding goals.

Werner’s miss does not come as a surprise given his mixed run of fortunes with the Blues, and here are some of the reactions from the club’s faithful.

Werner has been one of our best players in recent weeks. A random miss in an international game doesn't change that.

Back the players.
