Neid: "It's vital to check the local conditions"
Germany's women will begin their international journey to Canada on 11 June, for a trip lasting a total of nine days. "It's vital for us to sample the local conditions", explained national team coach Silvia Neid. "Adapting to artificial turf will be a particular challenge for us, and Canada will be demanding opponents."
After five wins from five matches, the women's national team currently hold a commanding lead in World Cup Qualifying Group 1, with 15 points and 40 goals scored. Only the winners of each of the seven European groups will qualify directly for the FIFA Women's World Cup 2015 in Canada. The four best group runners-up will contest play-offs to determine the final participants from the UEFA groups.
