Germany coach Martina Voss-Tecklenburg spoke about Alexandra Popp's injury after losing the 2022 Women's EURO final against England and expressed her greatest respect for her.

Germany took on England in the women's Euro 2022 final at Wembley on Sunday. 

In an even contest, Germany felt they should have had a penalty for handball against Leah Williamson, but the officials thought otherwise. England took the lead thanks to a lovely chip by Ella Toone after 62 minutes, but Lina Magull equalised for the Germans 11 minutes from time. The game went to extra-time and Chloe Kelly's 110th minute winner gave the Lionesses a historic victory. Germany lost their captain and top scorer Alexandra Popp to injury pre-game and Germany coach Martina Voss-Tecklenburg spoke about her post-game. Have a listen to her comments in the video above!

It is the first time England have won the European Championships and they will celebrate the trophy with their fans in a parade in London on Monday. The victory is expected to change women's football in England forever.
