Timo Werner has scored 15 goals in 34 games for Germany
Timo Werner scored twice as Germany rallied to beat Ukraine and increase their chances of reaching the Nations League final.
They only need to draw with Spain in Seville on Tuesday to win the group.
Roman Yaremchuk led Ukraine to the lead in Leipzig, but Leroy Sane made a draw.
Chelsea’s Werner headed a cross from Leon Goretzka from close range and then ended the game with a deflected shot.
Ukraine, which could still be relegated, played well and Oleksandr Zinchenko and Marlos hit the post in the second half.
Spain’s 1-1 draw with Switzerland means Germany now only needs one point instead of three to qualify for the semi-finals next October.
