Germany began their UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying campaign by beating the Netherlands 3-2 on Sunday to move level on points with the Dutch in Group C.
Manchester City marvel Leroy Sane put the visiting side ahead after 15 minutes at the Johan Cruyff Arena in Amsterdam, and Bayern Munich forward Serge Gnabry doubled their lead with a thundered solo finish.
The Netherlands were revived in the second half and scored through Matthijs de Ligt and Memphis Depay to equalise, but Hoffenheim's Nico Schulz was on hand to rescue Die Mannschaft with a 90th-minute winner.
Northern Ireland scored late to beat Belarus 2-1 on Sunday and maintain their 100-percent start, now leading Group C by three points.
