Germany's remarkable 18-match winning streak in World Cup qualifiers came to a halt after Eljif Elmas scored a late winner for North Macedonia.
Genoa and former Inter Milan forward Goran Pandev, 37, opened the scoring just before half-time on Wednesday night.
Ilkay Gundogan equalised from the penalty spot in the 64th minute after Sane had been fouled by Alioski.
But Elmas won it late on for the visitors.

So all it took to beat Germany was North Macedonia.🤔 what if South, East and West played them as well? Germany would have totally been done for.

Timo Werner is a National Disgrace
At least he is playing for his nation. U can just sit at home and type whatever u want becaus it’s easy to do.
