France - Germany live ticker: European Championship quarter-finals for DFB women
The German national team faces a tough challenge in the first knockout round. The DFB women's team will face France for a place in the semifinals. Carlotta Wamser is suspended due to a red card. Follow the match live.
The German women's soccer team will face the favored French team in the European Championship quarterfinals. Coach Christian Wück's team will face the match on Saturday (9:00 p.m./ZDF and DAZN) in Basel without the suspended Carlotta Wamser. 8,000 German fans are expected at St. Jakob-Park.
The 52-year-old Wück will have to reshuffle his defense again against the title-less French women's team after Wamser replaced injured captain Giulia Gwinn. Wück declined to comment in detail on the necessary changes. The introduction of experienced former Wolfsburg player Kathrin Hendrich is considered likely. In addition, 20-year-old Franciska Kett from FC Bayern could make her European Championship debut. When asked about her qualities, Wück succinctly stated: "Speed, left foot, determination, commitment, tackling ability."
