What now for women's football after Euro 2022 success? (1:14)

The growth of women's football was discussed by Gab and Julien. It took 1:14 for it to happen.

According to the German Football Association, the number of girls teams in the Frauen-Bundesliga has halved in the last four years. The lack of visibility and women in positions of power within the federation are highlighted in the data presented in a booklet. A five-year plan to increase the number of women in the sport is laid out in a booklet.

The English FA has a full-time model for the Women's Super League, the Italian FA has a full-time model for the top tiers of their respective leagues, and the Spanish FA has a full-time model. There's only so much the federation can do.

The director of national teams at the DFB was impressed by the need for clubs to improve their women's programmes when he spoke to Disney. They have to do it by heart and not tell you to do it. "If you do something by heart, you will do it perfectly, which is why we can't go to the clubs to tell them they have to do it." We have to find a solution.

It's a recipe for failure.

Germany's defeat could help the nation rally again around the women's sport, especially given that they've been one of the best teams in the world for a long time, something that can't happen without a strong domestic league. Germany woe 220801

The need for a lasting impact from the tournament was hammered home by the coach. The simple fact that Germany lost to England at Wembley should not affect her petition for better kick-off times.

The games are occasionally available outside of Germany through a subscription service, but only if you have a German T-Mobile account. It's clear that the public needs a better broadcast deal that doesn't slap them in the face.

The key factors that separated England from Germany were explained by Steffi Jones and Danielle Slaton.

Off the back of the Euros and Germany's return to a major tournament final for the first time in six years, there should be a boom of interest for the national team, with their semifinal against France drawing a TV audience of over 12 million. By all accounts, the coverage of the team back in Germany has gone down well, and maybe a loss in the final will end the team's reputation in Germany.

There's a beautiful game here. You can watch tournaments and teams.

On Monday morning, newspapers across Germany were splashed with headlines of "handball shame" and England pulling a fast one at Wembley. During the first half of the match, Marina Hegering's effort at a corner struck a raised arm of the opposing player. Kateryna Monzul, the referee, was not summoned to the screen on the sideline because the contact was not deemed enough of an infraction by the video assistant referee.

The lack of review was raised by the coach in her post match press conference and she wanted to know if the roles had been reversed. The incident and quotes from the coach and her players were seized upon by the media to tell the story of German fury and English robbery.

When coupled with the largely profitable football the team have pedalled this summer it's quite the thing to inspire crowds to invest their money.

Keeping the women's team fresh in the minds of the public will be the next task, with the men's Bundesliga kicking off in August. Germany's next two games are away to Turkey and Bulgaria in September and then at home in October.

The memories of Germany's defensive play and attacks from the Euros will be lost to the casual fans by that time.

The German women's national team, who have eight European crowns, two World Cup titles and an Olympic gold medal, have been slumbering for the past few years. They are awake again and ready to win again. We are only 353 days away from the start of the World Cup.
