“We are looking forward to both of these friendlies against Vietnam and Zambia a lot,” said Martina Voss-Tecklenburg. “We consciously decided to play teams that come from Asia and Africa – from the same continents as the teams that we will meet in the FIFA Women’s World Cup group stage. I am very excited to play Vietnam and Zambia having already played two top European teams and one top South American team.”
The Germany Women’s head coach continued: “I am really pleased by where we’re playing. We always enjoy playing in Offenbach. I hope that a lot of spectators will come and support us here, just like with our last home game ahead of the World Cup in Fürth. There, we are hoping for a good, maybe even sold-out ground, so that we can then take this momentum into the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.”
