Deniz Undav continued his impressive start in international football with both goals as Germany held on for a 2-1 win in Bosnia-Herzegovina tonight.
The Stuttgart striker has now scored three times in just two starts with his goals helping Julian Nagelsmann’s men establish a commanding half-time lead in Zenica.
Undav had another strike ruled out, as did Serge Gnabry, as the visitors looked to push home their advantage. But the third goal never came and Germany were hanging on a bit in the closing stages after veteran striker Edin Dzeko pulled one back with 20 minutes to go.
