Hirving Lozano scored the only goal of the game in the 35th minute, which handed Germany defeat in their opening World Cup match for the first time since 1982.

“We didn’t play well today… It can happen, you have to accept it. And we will not just break apart now and become completely headless and do something completely different… we have a clear structure and we will continue to look forward, there is no need to break up and panic simply because we lost a match,” Low said at the post-match press conference, adding that there were still two games ahead and Germany have “ample opportunity” to correct today’s result.

Germany are set to play Sweden in Sochi on 24 June, while Mexico will face South Korea in Rostov-on-Don on the same day.
