“I still have to process what is happening right now. It is an absolutely positive event, which makes me truly proud.” So does the midfielder Cora Zicaiborn in 2004, spoke in the press conference about his first call-up with the Germany shirt which arrived for the last two matches of the year against Switzerland and Italy: “For me too it was an unexpected call as for Alara. Coach Wurk contacted me directly and I was amazed because I didn’t expect it, I didn’t even know what to saybut now the joy of being part of this group is enormous.”
Then there is room for the reaction after the call: “I immediately called my parents, then I tried to keep the news only to my close circle of friends, because first I had to understand what had really happened, It’s been a pretty crazy few days. – continues Zicai in the press conference – I haven’t realized I’m here yet even if the thing that struck me most is the incredibly high standard in every training session”.
The Freiburg player then focuses on the two challenges and on the dream of making her debut with the senior national team: “If we actually managed to gain a few minutes in one of the two races it would be really fantastica dream would come true. We have no pressure and we can play as we know how.”
