Silvia Neid has announced the German Women’s National Team roster to compete in the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2015 qualifiers against Russia and Republic of Ireland.
Huth has returned to the squad in time for Germany’s final two World Cup qualifiers after missing international football for over a year due to a cruciate ligament injury.
Germany will take on Russia in Moscow on 13 September 2014 at 14:45CET (live on ARD), and Republic of Ireland on 17 September at 18:00 CET (live on ARD) in Heidenheim.
Germany are currently five points clear at the top of their FIFA Women’s World Cup 2015 qualifying group but must not underestimate their opponents if they are to seal a place at Canada 2015.
