The second clash of the 2018 Men’s Hockey World Cup tournament is between Germany and Pakistan. This would be the eight match of the tournament and the Germans were always considered to have an upper hand in hockey. But things have changed a bit now. Their performance in the last World Cup was not at all satisfactory according to their standards. The 2008 and 2012 Olympic gold medalists finished sixth in the tournament. However, Stefan Kermas and men would want to begin the mega-tournament on a high note and would be in no mood take Pakistan lightly.

On the other hand, the 13-ranked Pakistani team would want to win the first game as the team has had a very frustrating year. The team has not won anything significant. Despite this, the Tauqeer Dar and company can present a very stiff challenge to the Germans. The Green Machines would surely want to go up against the mighty Germans.

Talking about their head-to-head record, German definitely outweigh the Green Machines. The team has played on four occasions since 2013 and Germany has defeated Pakistan thrice. Pakistan could manage to win the game only once. The two teams have locked horns twice in the World Cup and both have won one match each.
