The DLV relay prevailed in front of a raging crowd in the Olympic Stadium in 42.34 seconds ahead of Poland (42.61) and Italy (42.84).
The co-favorite Brits with Dina Asher-Smith and the French were eliminated after a mistake in the substitution.
“It’s absolutely crazy. I wouldn’t have thought it possible. It was so much fun to be on the track here with the girls,” said Lückenkemper on ZDF.

Lückenkemper won her second medal in Munich five days after her surprising triumph in the 100 m. The 25-year-old only gave the green light for her start on Saturday after falling over 100 m immediately after crossing the finish line and injuring her left leg. This had to be sewn up in the hospital with eight stitches.
The German relay won bronze four years ago in Berlin, and the last time it was gold was in Helsinki in 2012.
