Sold out! The match between France and Germany filled the stadium
A month before the highly anticipated France–Germany showdown in Caen, all 18,000 tickets have already been snapped up — proof of the huge excitement around Les Bleues despite their surprise EURO 2025 exit.
- The French Football Federation announced that 18,000 tickets have been sold (a full house) for the Women’s Nations League semi-final return match between France and Germany on 28 October 2025 in Caen.
- It’s the first time Les Bleues return to Stade Michel-d’Ornano since February 2022, highlighting renewed public enthusiasm around the women’s national team.
- The first leg of the tie will be held on 24 October in Düsseldorf at 17:45.
- These matches carry extra weight after France’s elimination from Euro 2025 in the quarterfinals (versus Germany on penalties), setting up a revenge opportunity for the French side.
- Germany and France are competing for a spot in the Nations League final; the French public and media view the sold-out match as evidence of growing “attractivity” around the national team’s resurgence.
