Three in a row: Go, Germany, go!

Dear readers of my blog,

after the win of the 2014 FIFA World Cup and the 2014 UEFA European Under-19 Championship, another German squad has now won the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup in Canada. After victories over the United States of America and Brazil as well as a breathtaking 5:5 draw against the People's Republic of China at group stage, the young German women have won their quarter-final againt host nation Canada, their dramatic semi-final against France and in the end the final against Nigeria thanks to a goal by Lena Petermann after extra time. 2014 is definitely the best summer ever for German soccer! Congratulations to these clever, disciplined and powerful young women! Let's hope that the senior team will be able to repeat this triumphant achievements at the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada. I will try my very best to go and see some of the games in Ottawa and Montreal just as I did for the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.

PS: Here are a couple of pictures taken inside and outside the Olympic Stadium of Montreal prior to the games Germany versus Brazil and Canada versus North Korea two weeks ago!

Sincerely yours,

Sebastian Kluth
