Toni Kroos scores in the final minute, Germany dramatically beat Sweden.

The German team entered the match needing a win, while the Swedish players only needed a draw to have a good chance of advancing. Therefore, right after the opening whistle, Germany surged into the opponent's half and continuously put pressure on the Swedish goal.

But before Germany could make a difference, they conceded a goal. Following a loss of possession by Toni Kroos, Sweden launched a counter-attack, and Toivonen scored after a cross from the right wing. He controlled the ball with one touch before lobbing it over Neuer's head.

Toivonen's goal was somewhat fortunate as the ball deflected off a German defender's foot, but it was a deserved reward after Sweden had missed a one-on-one opportunity with the goalkeeper earlier in the match.

Having conceded a goal, Germany increased the pressure while Sweden had even more reason to play defensively and counter-attack. Germany attacked relentlessly but still couldn't score a goal by the end of the first half. It wasn't until the beginning of the second half that midfielder Marco Reus scored to give Germany the equalizer.

In the 47th minute, Timo Werner dribbled down the left wing to the Swedish goal line. He then passed the ball back into the penalty area, and Reus was quick to pounce on it to equalize the score.

After equalizing, Germany regained their composure and continued to press Sweden, while the Nordic team remained on the lookout for dangerous counter-attacks. In one such situation, German defender Boateng fouled a Swedish player, resulting in his second yellow card and sending him off at a time when Germany desperately needed a goal.

The events on the pitch seemed to work against Germany as their chances were repeatedly missed. First, Mario Gomez's powerful header forced goalkeeper Olsen into a difficult save, followed by Julian Brandt's shot hitting the post.

When the referee announced five minutes of added time, the "Tank" fans felt their chances of winning were smaller than ever.

But at the most difficult moment, star quality shone through. In the 90+4th minute, Werner skillfully dribbled the ball and was fouled just outside the penalty area. The ball was placed to the left of the goal and the shooting angle was very narrow. Marco Reus and Kroos stepped up to take the penalty, and a cross into the box was what the fans had anticipated.

But in the end, Toni Kroos chose to shoot straight. The German midfielder's shot was both powerful and accurate, beating goalkeeper Olsen and finding the back of the net against Sweden. The score was 2-1 for Germany, and the final whistle blew a few minutes later.

Ultimately, Germany won 2-1 thanks to goals from Marco Reus and Toni Kroos. This victory revived Joachim Loew's team's chances of advancing, while Sweden's defeat doesn't necessarily mean their chances are over. The situation in Group F is becoming incredibly unpredictable ahead of the final round of matches.
