Two teams in two very different situations meet in New Jersey as Ecuador face Germany at the FIFA World Cup 2026, and you can live stream the game around the world for free.

Ecuador have built their recent success on a rock-solid defense, but a goal-shy attack means their hopes of qualifying from Group E are on a knife-edge. La Tri were one of just three teams yet to score after two games but they really should have found the net in their 0-0 draw with Curacao last time out, when opposition goalkeeper Eloy Room made a record-equaling 15 saves. Having lost their opener 1-0 to Ivory Coast, their World Cup will be over if they fail to beat in-form Germany. Even then, they'll have to rely on a best third-placed spot, unless Curacao beat the Ivorians in the group's concurrent other game.

Die Mannschaft haven't progressed beyond the group stage since winning the 2014 tournament, but a 7-1 rout of Curacao and last-gasp 2-1 victory over Ivory Coast sealed their knockout place as group winners. Super sub Deniz Undav was their two-goal hero against the Elephants, the Stuttgart forward's winner coming four minutes into stoppage time, and he may get a start if head coach Julian Nagelsmann decides to rest players before the last 32. Germany will face one of the best third-place teams – likely Paraguay or Australia, but possibly Sweden – in Boston in the next round on Monday.
