On the night of June 24, Germany won 2-1 against the Vietnamese women's team in a friendly match at Bieberer Berg Stadium in Offenbach city.
Vietnam women's team played impressively against Germany
Although they won the match, this was not a really impressive performance from the home team.
Therefore, Krumbiegel and his teammates received a lot of criticism from the media after the match with the Vietnamese women's team.
“After the quick goal, the German women's team controlled the game but were almost stuck in finding a way into the Vietnamese goal.
On the contrary, if it weren't for the excellence of goalkeeper Frohms, we would have had to pick the ball out of the net twice in the first half.
After the break, we lost control of the game and almost equalized in the 77th minute from a close-range header by Nguyen Thi Tuyet Dung.
We were temporarily reassured thanks to Janina Minge's goal to raise the score to 2-0 in the 80th minute.
However, the Vietnamese women's players played very bravely and had good connection in the final minutes before Nguyen Thi Thanh Nha scored to shorten the score to 1-2 in a counter-attack.
The German women's defense revealed too many weaknesses and the opponent found those loopholes," wrote Bild.
Another German newspaper said that the home team played very poorly in both attack and defense.
“Lack of flexibility in attacking, vulnerability to counter-attacks and wasting opportunities are what the German women's team has shown.
However, this is also what they want to appear from the friendly match with the Vietnamese women's team," commented Speight newspaper.
“Without captain Alex Popp and five Bayern Munich players, the German team did not play impressively in the 2-1 victory over Vietnam.
Merle Frohms made two world- class saves before being beaten one-on-one by Thanh Nha.
That is a warning for us because the teams with low rankings on the FIFA rankings are not as weak as imagined," commented DW.
Meanwhile, coach Martina Voss-Tecklenburg expressed dissatisfaction with her players' performance in the match against the Vietnamese women's team.
“I am really not happy. I have to regroup the team, not just a few individuals but the whole team that did not play well. It is clearly not the way we want to play,” said the German women's coach.
