The final score was 0–2.[9] Germany were in third place after this matchday. A stoppage time goal from Ireland's John O'Shea cancelled out an earlier goal from Toni Kroos to cause Germany and Ireland to finish the match on 14 October 2014 (2014-10-14) tied 1–1.[10] Germany remained in third place. On 14 November 2014 (2014-11-14) Germany defeated Gibraltar 4–0. Thomas Müller scored two goals before Mario Götze scored one goal to make the score 3–0 at half time. The final goal of the match was an own goal by Yogan Santos.[11] After this matchday, Germany moved to second place in the group. The fifth matchday took place on 29 March 2015 (2015-03-29).
