Nevertheless, the English women made it to the semi-finals, where it was even clearer against strong Dutch women – 0:7. So now it’s time for the second game against Germany.

In recent years, the Germans have often only just lost in the knockout games at home tournaments, the last major title dates back to 2013 – the European Championship. “In the last few years, we always felt we were missing that little bit of luck in the playoffs,” said Nike Lorenz after the semi-finals.
