Juliane Wirtz has been called up to the Germany U20 squad. Originally, a course was planned in Freiburg from 18/19 to 27 October with two internationals against France included. The friendlies have been postponed due to current developments in the coronavirus pandemic and the course reduced by three days.
Following their 4–3 opening victory against Denmark, the Germany U19s made it two wins out of two by defeating hosts Wales, securing their place in the semi-finals with a game to spare. In the 4–0 win, Bayer 04 players Montrell Culbreath and Francis Onyeka once again put in impressive performances, with both finding the back of the net.
