No winner in the "duel of the best": Germany and Brazil drew 1-1 (1-1) in front of a European record crowd of 44.825 fans in Frankfurt's Commerzbank-Arena on Wednesday.
Anja Mittag had put the hosts in front after slotting in a Linda Bresonik cross from short distance after 24 minutes, but Maurine denied the World Champions the victory, when she equalized with a low shot from 12 metres after a free-kick by FIFA World's player of the year Marta (36.).
Former World's player Birgit Prinz didn't habe a lucky day though. She had to leave the pitch after 40 minutes with a broken rib.
