The third opponent this time was the Netherlands , against whom the only victory came. With a draw against Norway they were the best third in the group despite the defeat against the German team and thus reached the quarter-finals. But here they lost 4-0 against hosts Sweden .

While she hadn't missed a minute at the European Championships, she was often only used as a substitute or substitute for the 2014 Algarve Cup , qualifying for the 2015 World Cup and the 2015 Algarve Cup .
