Former international Olaf Thon sees a boom in women’s football. “There is no stopping them,” Thon confirmed in a column for the internet portal “web.de”.
“They move closer to the men.” Before the German women’s semi-final against France on Wednesday, he prophesied: “We will get to the final.”
The former FC Schalke 04 and FC Bayern Munich professional qualified: “Women’s football can never be compared to men’s football. They are two different sports. They cannot be compared at the highest level.”
