German footballers are starting the European Championship qualification without captain Alexandra Popp, who has a knee injury. A quartet around ex-Munich player Lina Magull is back in the squad, but two regulars are missing due to injuries.

On April 5th (8:30 p.m. / TV: ARD) the DFB selection will play against Austria in Linz, four days later in front of their home crowd in Aachen against Iceland. Former Frankfurt player Bibiane Schulze Solano, who is now under contract with Athletic Bilbao, has been nominated for the first time.
