It’s about the title: Germany can celebrate a great success in the second leg against Spain. Does it work? Follow the duel in the live ticker.

It couldn’t be more exciting: After the 0-0 draw in the first leg of the Nations League final between Germany and Spain, the starting position is completely open. For the team led by captain Giulia Gwinn, the second leg against the reigning world champions is now about their first title since the Olympic gold in 2016 – national coach Christian Wück and Co. finally want to reward themselves.

Follow the game live on the ticker here from 6:30 p.m.

Before the start – Germany starts the final with this eleven:

Wück relies on the same eleven players as in the first leg. The long-term injured such as striker Giovanna Hoffmann and Bayern star Lena Oberdorf as well as European Championship discovery Carlotta Wamser and attacker Lea Schüller are not in the squad, as was the case last Friday.

Before the start – Particularly bitter for the defending champions: world footballer Aitana Bonmatí is out because of a broken fibula she suffered during a practice session on Sunday.

Before the start – The duels between the two teams are always competitive. At the 2024 Olympics, the DFB selection snatched bronze away from Spain. At the European Championships this summer in Switzerland, the favorite from Spain again beat Germany 1-0 in the semi-finals. Who will win this time?

Before the start – Hello and welcome to the ticker of the final second leg in the Nations League between Germany and Spain. Kick-off at the Spanish Estadio Metropolitano, home of Atlético Madrid, is at 6:30 p.m.
