It was not a simple game that the Germans played, who managed to force the extension in the duel against France. They made a tremendous effort, being with a player less on the pitch since the beginning of the game and, in addition, playing half an extra hour. Something that must weigh in the physicist of the players, who also have a day less than Space To recover.
Those of Montse I took They had a rest day between the game and the first semifinal preparation training, being able to disconnect from football and from this Eurocup For a few hours with their relatives. Something that did not happen in the case of the Germans. The Teutonas began to exercise on Sunday, as did the selection, with a recovery and activation session in the gym. Logical, after the physical waste they had to eliminate France.
As if that were not enough, Germany It will have three casualties in those semifinals against Spain. The Germans arrive in a picture to the party, beyond with the lowest reserves, after so many minutes in numerical inferiority, which led them to make an extra effort.

Germany's casualties against Spain
The first of those casualties is more than evident. After seeing the red for hitting a hair in the area to a rival, Kathrin Henrich It will not be against Spain. The central was expelled after grabbing Mbock's hair, in a stopped ball action in which the ball did not even be close to both.
