Germany suffered a major injury blow ahead of their 2022 Women's Euros showdown with England after top scorer Alexandra Popp was ruled out through injury.
The striker was once again expected to spearhead the German side's attack at Wembley Stadium having been one of the standout players of the tournament thus far. She was initially handed a place in the side ahead of kick-off in the capital but she appeared to be struck down by a problem during the warm-up having been forced to deal with running injury issues throughout her career.
Going through her pre-match preparations, the 31-year-old was forced down the tunnel and dropped out of the starting line-up in place of Lea Schüller.
