And that’s going to continue probably through the summer,” Kloza told WTOP. “On the other hand, demand isn’t necessarily near where it was at the peak levels in 2019 and similar years.”Still, the price hike comes at a time of high car travel ...

Marina Hegering recovers in time to play for Germany in last group game of Women’s World Cup

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:26:42 GMT

AUCKLAND, New Zealand (AP) — Marina Hegering is fit to play for Germany against South Korea in a Group H finale that the Germans are treating as a must-win Women’s World Cup game. The defender missed Germany’s opening 6-0 victory over Morocco, as well as the shocking 2-1 loss to Colombia with an ankle injury. Germany is ranked second in the world and has never failed to advance out of group play at the World Cup. A ninth trip to the knockout round would be guaranteed Thursday with a win over South Korea in Brisbane, Australia. A draw would also be sufficient for the Germans unless Morocco upsets Colombia in Perth, Western Australia.The Germans need Hegering because defender Sara Doorsoun, who started the first two matches, injured her thigh in the loss to Colombia and has been ruled out for the group finale. “It means a lot to us because as soon as Marina is in training and able to perform properly, that’s fantastic value for our team,” coach Martina Voss-Tecklenburg sai...
