Test of the DFB women: Popp hits twice again against France

As of: 10/07/2022 10:41 p.m

On Friday evening (October 7th, 2022) in Dresden, the DFB women won the new edition of the European Championship semi-final against France (Germany won 2-1 with a brace from Alexandra Popp). The match winner was again captain Alexandra Popp, who scored both goals in the 2-1 (1-0) win against the French.

In front of 26,835 spectators in the Rudolf Harbig Stadium, Popp took the lead just before half-time (44th) and increased it a few minutes after the restart (48th). Former Bayern player Viviane Asseyi (85th) scored the goal with a penalty kick.

Without numerous permanent staff

Without the regulars Giulia Gwinn, Lena Magull (both FC Bayern Munich) and Sara Däbritz (Olympique Lyon), Lena Lattwein from Wolfsburg and Linda Dallmann from Munich were particularly challenged in attacking midfield. The DFB women put in a courageous performance and in the end had the better chances.

The next challenges await the German team in the two friendlies in November in the USA against the world champions. Voss-Tecklenberg hopes to gain important insights for the preparations for the World Cup from July 20 to August 20, 2023 in Australia and New Zealand. In the draw on October 22, the German team will also find out who their opponents are in the preliminary round.
