Ranked No. 2 in the world, Germany enter the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup as one of the favourites to lift the trophy.
The Germans have historically been amongst the best women's sides on the planet, with two World Cups to their name. They've made it to at least the quarter-finals of every WWC thus far, and a brief downturn in form in which Germany exited the 2017 UEFA Women's Euro in the quarters and failed to even qualify for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics seems to have passed as the team made it to the final at Euro 2022.
Now, the venerable side will once again aim for a long run in the WWC, starting with a group stage that will see them face Morocco, Colombia and South Korea. None of those teams should cause too many problems for the Germans, who will be expected to sweep through Group H.
Here are the fixtures that will define Germany's World Cup journey, along with kick-off times and how to watch.
