Germany vs Austria LIVE: Result, final score and reaction from Euro 2022 quarter-final as Germany win

Who will join England in the semi-finals?

Voss-Tecklenburg expecting 'insanely intense' Euro 2022 QF meeting with Austria

Germany carried their impressive group stage form into the knockout stages with a 2-0 win over Austria to reach the Euro 2022 semi-finals.

Germany went into the game having not conceded throughout the group stage - along with England - but unlike the host nation they sustained their record through an impressive quarter-final performance in Brentford.

Lina Magull capitalised on a well-crafted move from Germany to arrive on the ball unmarked and find the back of the net as the eight-time European champions remained in the hunt to add to their impressive record in the competition.

Austria looked to fight their way back into the tie after surprisingly qualifying for the knockout stages ahead of Norway, only to be denied three times by the woodwork during the 90 minutes. Both sides could have scored in the final exchanges of the game, with Germany missing the target on a number of occasions. They netted a late second when a poor clearance from Manuela Zinsberger rebounded off Germany captain Alexandra Popp and into the back of the net.

Germany 0-0 Austria

18 mins: Just like when they played England, Austria have looked determined this evening. They have a gameplan, are defensive solid and will try to attack when they get up the pitch.

Germany will be starting to realise that they’ve got a game on their hands.

Georgieva is the target from the next Austrian set piece. It’s a free kick from wide on the right that gets fizzed into the box. The defender makes a run from deep and just misses out as the ball skims over her head.

Austria come closest to opening the scoring after the corner ball is whipped into the box and falls perfectly for Marina Georgieva. She leaps and powers a header at the nearest post with Merle Frohms rooted to the spot.
