The BVB women began their training session in front of journalists with warm-up exercises in the centre circle. This was followed by a warm-up game – without a ball, but with various objects to throw – before moving on to passing drills with the ball.
Coach Markus Högner then had his players compete against each other in two teams on the full pitch, with regular pauses to hone in on tactical aspects. On Thursday, the focus was placed particularly on defence. At the end of the session, however, the Dortmund players were allowed to work on their finishing and also practised set pieces, with some impressive free-kick goals being scored at Hoeschpark.
