The German women’s national team wants to finally win a title again a few months after the semi-final exit at the European Championships in the summer. The next opportunity for national coach Christian Wück’s team is in the Nations League. The DFB women reached the Final Four tournament there and are now playing against an old friend in two semi-final games.
On Friday, October 24th, Germany will host the French selection for the first leg in Düsseldorf. Ann-Katrin Berger in particular will have fond memories of the last duel between the two teams, as the goalkeeper played a crucial role in a spectacular European Championship quarter-final in July.
Due to an early red card for Kathrin Hendrich, Germany had to play outnumbered for almost the entire game and were trailing 0-1 before Sjoeke Nüsken equalized. In the penalty shootout, Berger became the hero by saving two French penalties and leading Germany into the last four.
