Lena Oberdorf ruptured her ACL and MCL just before the Olympics, ruling her out of the tournament where Germany won the bronze medal.

She returned to on-grass running in her rehab with club Bayern Munich but she did not play a match last season. While she was included in a German Nations League squad, Oberdorf was not selected for this summer's tournament because of the injury.

Germany have also been hit with an injury during the tournament. Captain Giulia Gwinn came off with an injury during the team's opener against Poland, sustaining the issue after an excellent bit of defending.

After the game it was confirmed she would be ruled out of the rest of the tournament with a knee injury.

Elsewhere there have not been other any tournament-ending injuries yet.
