Training camp and friendlies – six players called up
While the season was over for most players after the last match of the 2020/21 campaign at SC Sand on Sunday, six players from the Bayer 04 women's squad are now on international duty.
Sylwia Matysik is set to play for Poland in two friendlies against Finland and the Czech Republic. Hungary with Henrietta Csiszár, Lilla Turányi and Dóra Zeller have two friendlies against Serbia. Milena Nikolić, in the Bosnia-Herzegovina team, has a friendly against Bulgaria. Switzerland, with Lara Marti, have a short training camp – an internal training match is planned instead of an international. Victoria Pinther is on standby for Austria.
