Germany penalty shootout streak ended

Germany had never lost a World Cup penalty shootout, winning all six they participated in. That streak came to an end in the 2026 FIFA World Cup against Paraguay, after a goal in extra time was controversially disallowed by VAR. As one fan put it, "The one time history breaks… a referee helped break it."
