All good things come to an end, and Germany will have to bring out the best of them before the 2018 World Cup begins.
Germany wasn't able to keep their 22-game unbeaten streak going against Brazil, as a header by Gabriel Jesus ended their second longest streak in history. This result saw Brazil earn a little payback following their 7-1 loss four years ago, even if it was just a friendly game.
Curiously enough, all of Germany's longest unbeaten streaks have ended against a South American team.
"From 1978-1981: 23-game streak snapped by Argentina
From 2016-2018: 22-game streak ended by Brazil
From 1996-1998: 22-game streak ended by Brazil
From 2013-2014: 18-game streak ended by Argentina"
