Germany's women's football team - unbeatable from the European champions' throne. In the final of the continental championships in Sweden, the Germans defeated the Norwegian footballers 1-0 (0-0).
Germany's national team won their sixth consecutive European championship. The Germans have been invincible for eighteen years and have been taking home the gold from the tournament since 1995.
Anja Mittag scored the winning goal in the 49th minute. However, the true hero of the match was not the goal scorer.
The most lifted German player was goalkeeper Nadine Angerer. In the first and second halves, the 34-year-old veteran saved one penalty each.
N. Angerer has long been witnessing the dominance of German female footballers in Europe. She made her debut for the national team at the age of 17. Since 1996, the goalkeeper has won five European championships with the national team.
Despite the absence of several key players participating in the continental championships, Germany only scored six goals in six matches. However, it was enough for the gold.
