Germany vs USA: How the two teams fared so far?
The USABWNT, riding an impressive 57-game unbeaten streak, is without a shadow of a doubt the best team on paper, owing to the quality that runs through their squad and, in particular, their depth. An ever-present for Cheryl Reeve’s side during the tournament so far, A’ja Wilson and Breanna Stewart have showcased why they are MVPs. The adaptability this team has shown against different opposition shows why they are strong gold medal favorites, and Wilson and Stewart’s dominance has been a huge part of that.
The pedigree of the Germans cannot be ignored, however. The first-time participants have been through a slightly less dominant, but have still put in some strong showings. Starting with an 83-69 victory over Belgium before finishing 75-64 against Japan, a match they had to win to qualify for the knockout stage.
A German player to look out for is undoubtedly Satou Sabally. The Dallas Wings forward lit up the group stages with 33 points, six rebounds, and three assists in the last time out and is in with a good shout of being named MVP of the tournament. Putting her talents aside, Germany's excellent defensive unit should be noted. Leonie Fiebich and Luisa Geiselsoder complement Sabally well by offering help on both ends of the court.
If the Germans thought they faced a tricky test against Japan, an entirely different assignment awaits as they come up against a star-studded USA outfit.
