Germany thrilled: Women's national team defeats Denmark in the European Championship thriller!
There was an exciting football game today as part of the UEFA Women's European Championship in Switzerland. The German women's national football team qualified early for the quarter-finals with a 2-1 win over Denmark. With an incredible crowd of 34,165, including at least 17,000 German fans, the DFB players showed that they have serious title ambitions. Deutschlandfunk reports that Germany turned the game around after the break after falling behind in the first half.
Denmark initially took the lead in the 26th minute through Amalie Vangsgaard after a mistake in the German defense was exploited. But in the course of the second half, national coach Christian Wück's team showed a clear improvement in performance after a weak first half. Sjoeke Nüsken scored from the penalty spot in the 56th minute after Dallmann was fouled in the penalty area, and Lea Schüller sealed the win in the 66th minute. Sports show added that a German goal from Klara Bühl in the first half was disallowed due to offside and a penalty due to handball.
