Germany lead from the corner. It’s lamentable defending by South Africa to leave Melanie Leupolz free six yards from goal to head home from Verena Schweers’ cross.

Goal : 29′ 0 – 2 Sara Daebritz
Absolute goalkeeping howler and Germany are in control. Verena Schweers’ fairly innocuous cross comes in from the left wing which, under no pressure, Andile Dlamini parries straight to Sara Dabritz, who can tap in an easy goal.

Goal : 40′ 0 – 3 Alexandra Popp
This could become anything now, Germany are cruising.
Alexandra Popp leaps over a defender to power home Giulia Gwinn’s cross. Great header.

Goal : 58′ 0 – 4 Lina Magull
It’s a tap-in and Germany are 4-0 up.
Marina Hegering gets a good diving header onto a cross, which Andile Dlamini does well to parry onto the post. Unfortunately for the goalkeeper, the ball runs to Lina Magull to tap into an empty net from an inch out.
