The worst fears surrounding Germany women’s national team captain Giulia Gwinn have not entirely been confirmed, but the news remains bad for the DFB-skipper. Gwinn will miss the duration of the ongoing 2025 Women’s European Championship with injury. Gwinn avoided the third ACL tear of her career, but will remain out for the rest of the tournament with a medial ligament tear in her knee.

Head coach Christian Wück’s Frauennationalmannschaft entered the current competition riding a wave of momentum. With newly-anointed captain Gwinn leading the way, many considered the German women favorites to capture their first continental crown since 2023.

A 2-0 win over Poland in last night’s Euro opener helped the German women extend their winning streak to six straight games dating back to February of this year. Wück’s team remain undefeated in 2025, having won six and drawn one of their current calendar year fixtures.

The DFB-Mädels were able to overcome Gwinn’s exit via injury last night, scoring both of their goals after the captain had to depart the pitch in tears in the 40th minute. Gwinn’s replacement – Carlotta Wamser – recorded an assist on the 52nd minute 1-0.

Though it took some time for Wück’s crew to break down the deep lying Polish defense, the German women eventually burst through the tight channels and scored a second goal in the 66th minute.

Germany currently top a group also featuring Poland, Sweden, and Denmark on goal differential. The Swedes also won their opening group stage fixtures against the Danes 1-0.
