Germany's women's football team steamrolled Austria in their final pre-EM test, claiming a resounding 6-0 victory in Vienna. This decisive win served as an excellent warm-up for their much-anticipated Euro summit in Switzerland.
Captain Giulia Gwinn expressed her delight after the game: "Honestly, we had a blast out there, especially in the first half. We put on quite the spectacle."
Within just 14 seconds, Sydney Lohmann opened the scoring for the fierce German side, who finished group play and secured a place in the finals against the Netherlands. The goals kept coming, with Lea Schüller (9'), Selina Cerci (26'), Klara Bühl (31'), Lohmann again (39'), and Laura Freigang (43') scoring before the break. Ahead of the Euro title match against Poland, the German team displayed a clear improvement in their form.

After the sensational performance of his likely EM squad in Bremen, head coach Christian Wueck made four changes for this pivotal contest. Bundesliga top scorer Cerci and Lohmann were both outstanding, showing off their skills alongside Freigang and Franziska Kett. Wueck's players delivered a remarkable performance in front of 5150 fans at the Franz-Horr Stadium in Vienna.
Although the German team made occasional defensive errors, Austria failed to capitalize. Germany's attacks down the wings resulted in clinical goals, while Schüller (14/16) missed couple of good chances. Lohmann's second goal came from 25 meters, and Freigang capped off a near-perfect first half with a goal she herself set up.

At halftime, Wueck brought on Gwinn, Rebecca Knaak, and Bühl. The second half was controlled by Germany, and goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger looked much more secure after earlier errors. Despite Janina Minge's awkward challenge, Germany was fortunate to avoid conceding a penalty to Austria in the 78th minute.
For the Euro title hopefuls, there's no time to rest, as they face their next challenge on June 19. Wiegman will work with his team in Herzogenaurach on fine-tuning preparations. The decision on whether Lena Oberdorf, who has yet to play a competitive game after her ACL injury, can join the squad in Switzerland is expected at least a week prior to the tournament.
