What the coach has to say:
Team boss Alexander Schriebl has a clear approach: “Our plan is to act similarly to the first leg against Germany. We know that the Germans are the clear favorites, which they have once again proven impressively against the Netherlands. It will be important what we do in possession of the ball.

Head coach Schriebl wants to focus on his own performance before tomorrow’s seventh duel with the Germans: “We want to concentrate on our game, keep Germany in motion and be toxic. This is not an easy task against Germany, but we still want to go through with our game.”

- Zinsberger
- Hanshaw
- Kirchberger
- Georgieva
- Wienroither

What the coach has to say:
Head coach Wück spoke about the squad, the upcoming games and more on DFB.de:
On the upcoming UEFA Women’s Nations League games: “We want to go to the Final Four of the Nations League and see the game against the Netherlands as a final. In addition, the international matches are an important preparation for the European Championships.”
On the squad: “We wanted to give ourselves the opportunity to see players in training, to check how far they are. It is helpful for us to take two or three more players with us to assess the right training quota.”
On the return of Lena Oberdorf: “We want to give her the opportunity to present herself at her level. We want to assess her training performance with our own eyes; she is 100 percent operational. We are in close contact with Bayern Munich and also with Lena. We’re waiting to see how the training goes. Lena absolutely wants to take the next step and gain a foothold here again. After consultation with Bayern, she now gets into competitive training. Then we look step by step. She wouldn’t be here if I didn’t give her an important role. It’s about putting together the best team for a European Championship – even beyond the first eleven.”
On Carlotta Wamser: “Carlotta has earned the nomination in recent months. She deserves to prove herself at this level now.”
