Germany through to Euro 2025 quarter-finals, Denmark go out

Mixed fortunes with one celebrating on her first start and the other disappointed in her first tournament appearance of her career. The clash between the two future teammates at the Women's Euro in Switzerland saw Carlotta Wamser progress to the quarter-finals with Germany thanks to a 2-1 win against Cornelia Kramer's Denmark team. The Scandinavian side have no chance of going through to the next round after two defeats in their first two group matches.
Cornelia Kramer und Carlotta Wamser

Wamser continued her successful tournament in Basel on Tuesday night. The wingback, who joined Leverkusen in the summer from Eintracht Frankfurt, came on as a substitute just before half-time to replace the injured captain Giulia Gwinn in Germany's 2-0 opening win against Poland. She stood out with an outstanding performance – including involvement in both goals. As Gwinn is ruled out for the rest of Euro 2025 due to an MCL injury, Wamser started as a straight replacement against Denmark in only her second appearance at a major tournament and her fourth international appearance overall. Once again, the 21-year-old gave nothing away in defence on the right flank and she was often involved in attacks as in the game against Poland. She also had an attempt on goal with a volley from a promising position at the start of the second half.

With Sweden beating Poland 3-0 in the later match they not only secured their place in the last eight but also put Germany and Wamser through to the quarter-finals. The two teams meet on Saturday, 12 July (kick-off: 21:00 CEST in Zürich) for the group decider. Germany will play in the quarter-finals either on 17 or 19 July.

The Swedish victory also had consequences for Wamser's future Werkself teammate Kramer. The Danes, who lost 1-0 in their opening match against the Scandinavian neighbours, are out of the competition with no points after two games. One consolation for the Leverkusen striker: Her substitution on 61 minutes marked her first appearance in a Euro match – even though the night did not end with the desired result. Kramer and Denmark play Poland in Lucerne in the final group match on Saturday night at the same time as the Germany game.
