Germany's Leon Goretzka scored two expertly-taken goals
in the opening eight minutes to set his side on the way to a 4-1 win over
Mexico in their Confederations Cup semifinals on Thursday.
Timo Werner added the third just before the
hour as Germany's young, experimental team took advantage of the wide open
spaces in the Mexico defence with ruthless finishing.
Mexico's Marco Fabian pulled a goal back with
a spectacular, swerving strike in the 89th minute but Amin Younis hit a fourth
for Germany during stoppage time in an end-to-end game.
Germany whose starting team had an average
age of just under 24, will meet South American champions Chile in Sunday's
final in St . Petersburg.
