The formidable German women’s football team clinched the Euro championship for the sixth consecutive time. Following the elimination of France, a strong contender in the competition, the path to victory seemed clearer for Nadine Angerer’s teammates. The team had to overcome the host country, Sweden, in the semi-finals.
In the championship final against Norway this Sunday, the German public owes a debt of gratitude to their goalkeeper. Angerer made a crucial save, stopping a penalty from Ronning in the first half, allowing her team to reach halftime with a goalless draw. Upon returning from the break, Mittag scored the opening goal for Germany. However, there was still apprehension as Norway was awarded a second penalty. Yet again, Angerer demonstrated her skill by thwarting Gulbrandsen’s shot, as evident in her passionate reaction captured in a photo.
Germany managed to secure victory and held on until the end of the 90 minutes, solidifying their dominance in women’s football.
