The success of this game marks an important stage for the German team, which will now travel to Austria for the last Nation League game.

Giovanna Hoffmann, a player with Bremen roots, was in the squad, but was initially on the bench. Wück also emphasizes the talent Sophie Weidauer, Larissa Mühlhaus and Tuana Mahmoud, which he observes intensely.

Women's football in change

The positive development of women's football can not only be felt in Bremen, but also runs through many aspects of international football. Women's football has developed enormously in the past ten years, although challenges continue to exist. Current statistics show that 181 out of 211 member associations are conducted in the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking list, which is a new record. This is a sign of the increasing popularity and professionalization of women's football.

FIFA introduced a women's football strategy in 2018, which includes four main goals and five pillars to promote women's football. Increased investments are also planned, such as the USD 1.5 billion aid package during the Covid 19 pandemic to support women's football. With the aim of increasing the number of girls and women in football to 60 million by 2026, FIFA relies on sustainable development and equality in sport.

Overall, yesterday's game day impressively shows how women's football is gaining in importance both at national and international levels and the enthusiasm for it continues to grow. Spectators, players and coaches contribute to a new chapter in the history of football.
