The 2022 Women’s European Championships in England are beginning. Here’s how to follow along from a Bayern Munich Frauen perspective, broken down by national team.
How to watch: ESPN/ESPN2, Univision, TUDN in the US; BBC in the UK. Select games will be carried on the ESPN+ streaming service in the US.
Germany
DF Giulia Gwinn, MF Linda Dallmann, MF Lina Magull, FW Sydney Lohmann, FW Klara Bühl, FW Lea Schüller.
Honorary mention: recently-departed DF Marina Hegering, now at Vfl Wolfsburg.
Another spotlight: Some big names are missing from the Germany central midfield this tournament (Melanie Leupolz — Chelsea, Dzsenifer Marozsán — Olympique Lyonnais), and Lena Magull has been one of the players entrusted with the keys to the engine. Not a problem for the Bayern captain, who last August graced BFW’s own C.Smith with an exclusive interview!
