Two-Time Cancer Survivor Ann-Katrin Berger Puts in All-Time Great Performance to Propel Germany to Euro 2025 Semifinals

BASEL, SWITZERLAND, JUL 19 – Germany advanced to the semifinals after goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger saved two penalties and scored one in a 6-5 shootout win despite playing with 10 players most of the match.

  • On Saturday, July 19, 2025, Germany overcame France at St. Jakob-Park, Basel, winning on penalties after a 1-1 draw following extra time.
  • Early in the match, Germany's Kathrin Hendrich received a straight red card for pulling Griedge Mbock Bathy’s hair, leading to a penalty and an early French lead.
  • Even with France’s numerical edge, nine saves in open play, BBC reported, while Nuesken’s header, RT Sport said, tied the game and France saw goals disallowed.
  • Next up is France, Germany advances a step closer to another final and will meet Spain on Wednesday in Zurich.
  • For Ann-Katrin Berger, this run resonates personally, reflected in her tattoo detail, as she first learned of her cancer’s return at this tournament years ago.
