The World Cup produced one of its most dramatic days so far yesterday as we go through the final group stage games.

At one point in the games last night, we were witnessing both Germany and Spain going out of the competition in the group stages. But then up steps Kai Havertz, not to save Germany, but to save Spain.

Sources: Deep dive into Chelsea’s transfer plans across the next two windows!

Amazingly, his two goals for Germany to help them beat Costa Rica, actually ended up putting Spain through after they lost to Japan! Havertz and Germany then headed home because Spain lost!

Spanish media outlet Marca, are making sure to thank him on their front pages this morning!
