The 19th edition of the FIFA-17 World Cup concluded at the Manahan Stadium in Indonesia on Saturday, with Germany pipping France to win the title for the first time.
Germany’s maiden title tilt was helped along the way by electric forward Brunner. He mixed a string of exceptional performances with a total of four goals at the tournament - including a brace in the semifinal and one in the showpiece match against France - to be crowned as the tournament’s outstanding player.
