Man City veteran Gundogan: Spain draw a fair result

Manchester City veteran Ilkay Gundogan praised Germany goalscorer Niclas Fullkrug after their draw with Spain on Sunday.

Fullkrug struck late to cancel out Alvaro Morata's opener.

Gundogan said later: "We could've scored earlier. We scored but unfortunately it was disallowed.

"We had really good chances and if you look at the chances we were a little bit better but in the end the result was fair against a very tough Spain side. Now it's all about the last game of the group stage.

"It's crazy. A competition like the World Cup and playing such a tournament you already know it's going to be dramatic. Some games are full of different momentums - up and down.

"I was on the bench talking to Thomas Muller and we felt there was a goal for us. The finish from Niclas was unbelievable, a typical striker's finish and he stood up when we really needed it."
