The team from the Alpine republic prevails against co-favorite Norway and is in the next round. It stays exciting until the end.
Germany meets Austria in the quarter-finals of the European Football Championship in England. The team from the Alpine Republic beat co-favorite Norway 1-0 (1-0) in the decisive third game of Group A and are thus in the last eight of the tournament. Nicole Billa (37th) shot the Austrians further in Brighton – and made the debacle perfect for the Scandinavians, who were highly rated at the beginning of the tournament. England had already been determined as the group winners.
The Norwegians around their star Ada Hegerberg disappointed again after the 0:8 against England and are eliminated. For the selection of coach Irene Fuhrmann, striker Billa, Germany and Austria’s “Footballer of the Year” of 2021, scored with a header. Goalkeeper Manuela Zinsberger had to save the victory with two saves in the last few minutes. The DFB women, who have already qualified for the first knockout round, will play next Thursday in London-Brentford against the team from the neighboring country.
