Team Germany Is The 2007 Women's Soccer World Cup Champion! Convincing win against Brazil 2-0

The German Women's Soccer Team proved that they are still the force to be reckoned with in the world of women's soccer! Goals from Birgit Prinz and and Simone Laudehr dealt the Brazilian the heart breaking loss as they seemed invincible in the run-up matches to this 2007 Women's Soccer World Cup finals. In fact, the Brazilian women had somewhat the upper hand on this match against Germany as they had longer possessions than their opponents and also had more free kicks. Goals however were the things that counted the most as Brazil failed to scored in their lengthy possessions while the German women were precise in their tactics. This competition is a 2008 Beijing Olympics Qualifier tournament.

Player of the match Nadine Angerer took the limelight as she saved a penalty kick by Marta. Marta and the rest of Team Brazil were frustrated the whole match.
