The DFB women could not bring the European Championship title to Germany. There was still a special award for two players.

The German national team had to give up in the semi-finals against Spain at the European Championship in Switzerland-but two national players receive special appreciation at the end of the tournament. UEFA appointed Jule Brand and Franziska Kett to the tournament team at the 2025 European Championship. The association announced the nomination the day after the final between England and Spain, which the “Lionesses” could win after penalty shootouts.

Brand, which recently switched from VfL Wolfsburg to Olympique Lyon, convinced with two goals and two templates in five missions. Her goal against Poland was chosen by UEFA in fourth place in the ten most beautiful tournament gates.

The fact that Kett, who is under contract with Bayern, was appointed to the tournament team, is surprising. Because: The 20-year-old only came to her first mission in the quarter-finals against France. There she jumped in for the red -locked Carlotta Wamser and promptly convinced. She also performed strongly when it comes to semi-final against Spain.

In addition to fire and kett, four players from the English team were elected to the eleven, including Chloe Kelly, who converted the decisive penalty in the final.

Four Spaniards also made it into the eleven of the tournament, including the two two -time world footballers Alexia Putellas and Aitana Bonmatí. The contingent of Elena Linari, central defender of the Italian selection, is completed.

According to UEFA, the selection was made by an observer group of the association. “When choosing the players, we made sure not only to take into account players who enriched the tournament with their technical skills and their teamwork, but also players who had a decisive influence in the most important games,” said a message.
