Following their defeat to England last month, Germany U20 got back to winning ways with two goals after the 84th minute mark against Poland. Hannes Wolf's side trailed the game for over an hour before their dramatic comeback started with Tom Meyer's strike.

Bochum's key midfielder has never played for Germany at any level before coming off the bench to make an immediate impact. Fellow substitute Eric da Silva Moreira, who also scored in the 2-1 defeat to England, won it for the visitors in the first minute of injury-time.

Niklas Swider, Jarzinho Malanga and FC Bayern's attacker Tim Binder also made their first appearances at this level for Germany. England maintained their perfect start earlier on Thursday with a 6-1 victory over Czechia in Mansfield.

Germany sit second in the U20 Elite League standings with nine points from four games. They will play their last 2026 game on Monday away at Czechia.
