Strong prelude: DFB women dominate Australia in the Olympic Nine
Marseille - the Olympic Games have started and the German national women's soccer team has set a strong sign. With a 3-0 victory against Australia, the team shows that it is ready to fight medals again. This applies particularly against the background of their last appearances at the international level and the high expectations that are placed on them. The fact that the team was able to play out its strengths without the seriously injured Lena Oberdorf is particularly noteworthy.
a remarkable start without the key player
The victory was borne by Duos: Marina Hegering and Lea Schüller each hit the head, while Jule Brand contributed another goal. "You saw what quality we have," said national coach Horst Hrubesch after the game and emphasized the positive course of the encounter, despite the initial nervousness. A decisive factor for victory was the early goal in the 24th minute, which helped the German women to win control over the game.
The return to the big stage
Ann-Katrin Berger, the new number one in the goal, received a lot of praise, especially after her solid performance. After the disappointments of the last competitions, including the 2023 World Cup, their commitment is an important chapter in the new history of the DFB women. "I'm absolutely satisfied with the beginning," said captain Alexandra Popp after the game and emphasized the dominant appearance against a strong Australian team.
a team with a lot of potential
Defensively, the team worked solidly. Hegering and Kathrin Hendrich closed the rooms towards the Australian offensive, who could not radiate the usual danger without their captain Sam Kerr (cruciate ligament tear). However, the views were not only on the field, but also on the backdrop in the Stade Vélodrome, where the victory was celebrated in front of just a few thousand spectators.an important signal for the future
With this strong appearance, the DFB women not only underpin their medal ambitions, but also send a signal to the other teams in the tournament. The victory against Australia could be crucial for the German team, since only the best group thirds move into the quarter -finals. The next challenge is already waiting against the United States on Sunday, which is historically one of the strongest national teams in women's football.
conclusion: a promising start
The DFB women have made a strong start to the Olympic tournament with a clear victory and showed that they can also build on their strengths in setback situations such as the injury from Oberdorf. Your perseverance and team spirit should be decisive in order to master the upcoming challenges and to achieve your goal of winning a medal.
