After 1:1 against Spain, the DFB Women meet Canada at 21:15 today. An “absolute top team” for national coach Martina Vos-Tecklenburg.
After the opening match against the Spaniards, goal scorer Lee Schuler said he defended for “what felt like 90 minutes”. Against Canada, the DFB-Elf should have a lot of possession of the ball – the North Americans clearly have a strength in the switching game.
So Martina Vos-Tecklenburg asked her squad to “act confidently into the opening of the game”. In possession of the opposing ball, the German team wanted to be more aggressive than the Spaniards and more defensively. National coaches want more accuracy for aggressive play.
Midfielder Lena Magal complained about the low number of spectators against Spain. “We expected the rank to be a little better,” said the Bayern player. “We hope there will be more people in the stadium against Canada.”
On the other hand, the conditions in the team quarters are ideal according to the 27-year-old. The same applies to the team environment. “The mood is good, the atmosphere is good,” Magal confirmed.
Best conditions to win the Arnold Clark Cup against Canada (1-1 in the opening game against England). These are the lineups from which both teams are expected to start:
Canada: Sheridan – Rivier, Buchanan, Gilles, Lawrence – Fleming, Grosso, Scott – Becky, Rose, Huitema
Germany: Frommes – Raul, Feldkamp, Oberndorf, Gwynne – Magal, Delman, Dabritz – Brandt, Schuler, Anomie
