The games
Group stage
Germany - Norway 1: 0 (0: 0)
The first game of the German women's national soccer team ended 1-0 against Norway in front of 1,500 spectators. Germany's national coach Tina Theune-Meyer won with Conny Pohlers' only goal.
Line-up: Rottenberg - Stegemann, Hingst, Jones, Minnert - Garefrekes, Lingor, Omilade (62nd Carlson), Pohlers (80th Wimbersky) - Mittag, Grings (71st Smisek)
Goals: 1-0 Pohlers (61.)
Italy - Germany 0: 4 (0: 2)
The German women's national soccer team qualified for the semi-finals by beating Italy 4-0 before the last group game. With an early goal by the recovered Birgit Prinz, and further goals by Conny Pohlers, Steffi Jones and Anja Mittag (margin of a hand-eleven meter), the team of trainer Tina Theune-Meyer deservedly won. The number of spectators in Preston in the north-west of England was also disappointing in the second German game . Only 1,497 visitors wanted to see the reigning world and European champions in women's football.
Line-up: Rottenberg - Stegemann (18th Grings), Hingst, Jones, Minnert - Garefrekes, Carlson, Lingor (61st Wimbersky), Pohlers - Mittag (77th Smisek), Prinz
Goals: 0: 1 Prince (11th); 0: 2 Pohlers (18th); 0: 3 Jones (55th); 0: 4 noon (74th)
France - Germany 0: 3 (0: 0)
The German team also won the third and final preliminary round match of the European Championship in Warrington in front of 3835 spectators without conceding a goal. The women from Germany scored the goals late from Inka Grings, Renate Lingor ( penalty kick ) and Sandra Minnert. Most of the time, the EM game was on a weak level.
Compared to the win against the Italian women, the team started without Stegemann, who was injured on the inner ligament in his right knee, and without Carlson. It was an even game in the first half, with scoring chances on both sides. Pia Wunderlich came on as a substitute in the second half and was allowed to play her 100th international match for Germany. Thanks to an outstanding final sprint of the German team with three goals in eleven minutes, the DFB selection now moves into the semi-finals as group winners with six points and 8-0 goals.
Line-up: Rottenberg - Garefrekes, Hingst, Jones, Minnert - Omilade, Grings, Lingor (79th Carlson), Pohlers (46th P. Wunderlich) - noon (46th foot), Prinz
Goals: 1-0 Grings (72nd); 2-0 Lingor (77th penalty kick); 3-0 Minnert (83rd)
Final round
Semi-finals: Germany - Finland 4: 1 (3: 1)
The German women also won the fourth game of the European Championship convincingly. In front of 2785 visitors in Preston , the team of trainer Tina Theune-Meyer against Finland started brilliantly, so that the game was decided 3-0 after twelve minutes. The inexperienced Finns, who took part in an EM for the first time, went down against the favorites from Germany in the first few minutes. Through catastrophic mistakes in the defense ranks of the northern Europeans, all three goals of the Germans were favored. Only three minutes after the 3-0 win, the Finnish team scored the next goal after a corner kick. However, there was hardly any tension in the following period, as the German women controlled the game. After the 4-1 by striker Birgit Prinz , the players of the world and European champions took it easy. However, despite some remarkable combinations, they missed making the victory even higher.
Line-up: Rottenberg - Garefrekes (62nd Wimbersky), Hingst, Jones, Minnert - Carlson, Grings, Lingor (75th Günther), Pohlers - Mittag (46th foot), Prinz
Goals: 1-0 Grings (3rd); 2: 0 Pohlers (8th); 3: 0 grings (12th); 3: 1 Mustons (15th); 4: 1 Prince (62nd)
Final: Germany - Norway 3: 1 (2: 1)
June 19, 2005 | Blackburn | 4.15 p.m. (cet) |
With a well-deserved, but for a long time hard-fought 3-1 win against Norway, the German national soccer team secured the sixth European championship title and thus gave the successful coach Tina Theune-Meyer a perfect end to her retirement. After a one-two hit by Inka Grings and Renate Lingor, the Norwegians were able to shorten the game to 1: 2 shortly before the break with Dagny Mellgren, before world footballer Birgit Prinz made the decision with her goal to make it 3-1.
