The Germany women’s national team is back in action.
After an impressive display against England on Friday in Christian Wück’s introduction as national team head coach, the Germans will face off against Australia.
With Bayern Munich’s Lea Schüller out, RB Leipzig’s Giovanna Hoffmann led the line for a formidable German attack that managed four goals against the Lionesses. It was a top-to-bottom impressive performance last time out — featuring also a brace from Bayern full-back Giulia Gwinn and a goal and assist from Bayern winger Klara Bühl. But, like the men’s team, this roster is a little bit Bayern-light…and it is proving to be a wonderful opportunity for the rest of Germany’s talent pool to assert itself.
In injury news, it looks like Lyon’s Sara Däbritz, Bayern’s Sydney Lohmann, and Eintracht Frankfurt’s Laura Freigang are all out for various injury and illness issues — opening the door again for long-time Bayern star Lina Magull, now at Inter Milan:
