Germany's Mario Gotze is desperate to score his first World Cup goal when they face Ghana on Saturday.
The Bayern Munich player had a good chance in the early stages of his side's 4-0 thrashing of Portugal on Monday but was unable to convert.
He then watched on as Thomas Muller netted a hat-trick, while Mats Hummels also scored in their first game of the tournament.
Gotze is hungry to get off the mark against Ghana - who lost their opener 2-1 to the United States - but acknowledged they will be tough to beat given their predicament.
"I had one good chance to score a goal [against Portugal]," Gotze told Kicker.
"I want to score against Ghana now. It won't be easy because the Ghanaians are under pressure and need to win.
"It's already a playoff for them but we want the three points."
