Constellations to advance – DFB women even defeat could be enough

After the 1:2 (0:0) in the second World Cup preliminary round match against Colombia, the German women’s soccer team can still make it into the knockout round in several ways.

Before the last World Cup preliminary round match on Thursday in Brisbane against South Korea (12:00 CEST/ZDF), the constellation looks like this:

Germany (3 points, 7:2 goals) is second in Group H behind Colombia (6 points, 4:1 goals). Morocco (3 points, 1:6 goals) is third and South Korea (0 points, 0:3 goals) is fourth. The top two teams advance.

The DFB women reach the round of 16,

1.) with a win against South Korea.

2.) in case of a draw against South Korea, if Morocco does not win against Colombia at the same time.

3.) in case of a defeat against South Korea with a maximum difference of four goals, if Morocco loses against Colombia.
