Another record has fallen at the start of the 2026 World Cup. Thanks to their commanding display against Curaçao (7-1) on Sunday, Germany has made history.

On Sunday evening, Germany became the highest-scoring team in the history of the tournament, now boasting 239 goals—one more than Brazil. This milestone was achieved following their impressive performance against Curaçao (7-1) in their opening match of the 2026 World Cup.

A spectacular start for Jamal Musiala and his teammates.
