Disease ÖFB women: 1: 3 defeat against the Netherlands!

Austria's national women's national team had to accept a clear defeat in the UEFA Nations League on April 4, 2025. In the ASITO stadium in Almelo, the team against the Netherlands lost 1: 3. Despite the defeat, Austria remains in third place in their group of League A, since Germany was victorious against Scotland.
The game started promising for Austria, which acted offensive in the first few minutes. Nevertheless, the ÖFB women lacked the mandatory highlights. In the 12th minute Jackie Groenen scored for the Netherlands with a precise long -range shot and put his team in the lead.

In the first half, Austria had the opportunity to equalize. However, Sarah Zadrazil failed in the 30th minute free -standing on the Kreuzeck. The Netherlands also remained dangerous, but Vivianne Miedema missed another option by pushing the gate in the 39th minute. With a 1-0 behind, the Austrians went into the half -time break.

The second half began with a fast goal by the Dutchman Damaris Egurrola, who increased to 2-0 in the 48th minute after a corner. Austria had trouble acting aggressively in the game and found only a significant conclusion in the second half. In the 76th minute, Sherida Spitse converted a penalty after Lineth Beerensteyn was held in the penalty area, 3-0 for the hosts.
Despite the oppressive defeat, Austria was able to score an honor in added time: Maria Plattner scored in the 90th+4 minute after a pass from Hickelsberger-Füller and set the final score to 1: 3.

Overall, it was shown that the Dutch women were more efficient, while Austria had difficulty using the chances.

The competition consists of three leagues with ascent and descent and is an important part of the qualification process for future EM, World Cup and Olympic kidney, whereby the first groups of league A qualify for the final round.
Austria now has the opportunity to revenge because the second leg against the Dutch women is coming up next Tuesday.
