Defeat at Popp-farewell! | Germany vs. Australia 1-2 | Highlights | Friendly

The captains are leaving, but are still getting their last dance in Duisburg. And not only Alex Popp says goodbye to the DFB team, also Merle Froms and Marina Hegering get their deserved official goodbye after their return. Some stories end this evening, others start on this Monday evening. The Frankfurt woman Lisanne Gräwe with number 14 celebrates her debut in the DFB jersey. It already started in front of 26,000 fans. In Duisburg, the first chance for Germany. A good cross and Cercsi with the 1-0. First goal in the fourth game for the Hoffenheim woman. And so it can start in the first home game for German coach Christian Wück. Like against England a few days ago. A similarly furious start. Now in Duisburg for the DFB team against Australia in this test game. The eighth minute. Alex Popp immediately looks for his colleagues, lifts the ball, but Australia can clarify, but does not. Well, the ball can be lured away here and Rauch puts the ball on the post. Good finish from Felicitas Rauch in this situation. We are still in the starting phase. Germany with a lot of speed and a lot of momentum for the goal. But Clara Bühl, who fails here from a good position to goalkeeper Makenzie Arnold. And then the big moment came. We see the red 11 shining on the board, on the whole stadium, including Horst Hrubesch, Alexandra Popp in her 145th home game. The Olympia winner from Rio says goodbye. Thank you, Poppy. The 25th minute. And so slowly but surely the guests from Australia also appeared. The possibility for Catelyn Ford. The attacking player from Arsenal with a good single action, but Stina Johannes in her second home game makes the 24-year-old her thing here. Really, really good. Then again Germany on the other side. Gwin with the flank on Nüsken, but she can't keep the ball in the goal. The first half, in any case, was marked offensively by the 11 of the Bundesliga coach Wück. Next action, this time Endemann, not as a preparer like before the 1-0, but she tries herself. Good chance, strong position, the finish, but able to expand. Then again Australia, suddenly with this crazy goal. Kyra Cooney-Cross in her 50th home game with her first goal. And you can't do much more beautiful. Bitter, of course, for Stina Johannes. Doesn't get there anymore. 1-1, that was the break. Alexandra Popp now has less to work with her legs. Now in this game more with the hands, there must be some autographs. Well, of course, everyone wants a memory of this game, of our captains. The second half less marked by goal chances. The possibility in the 55th, then through the excited Linda, but it stays at 1-1. In the final quarter of an hour, then suddenly Australia with the goal to 1-2. Claire Hunt in the summer from the Seine from Paris to the Thames, moved to London to the Spurs. Can steer the ball over the line here. The reaction of the German team, how did it look? Nicole Agnomi, the ball falls back to Pia Sophie Wolter. Good chance for her. Mackenzie Arnold is there, the goalkeeper of West Ham United. And we let it run uncut now. The corner is quickly executed. Flank by Linda. And then Linda Dallmann with the finish, blocked. It was the last good offensive moment of the German team. Here again the action of Wolter before. Good shot, but also good parade. And so it remains with the close defeat against Australia. But despite the defeat, a very special evening for German women's football ends here.
