Signal Iduna Park, Dortmund

England will begin 2017 with a trip to Dortmund to face Germany on Wednesday 22 March.

A year after beating the world champions 3-2 in Berlin, The Three Lions will once again test themselves against Die Mannschaft – this time at Borussia Dortmund’s Signal Iduna Park.

Germany v England

An international match
7.45pm (GMT), Wednesday 22 March
Signal-Iduna-Park, Dortmund

 

The fixture will come four days before the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Lithuania at Wembley Stadium connected by EE on Sunday 26 March.

The last meeting with Germany – the 30th between these two sides and 13th victory for England – saw goals from Harry Kane, Jamie Vardy and Eric Dier help to complete an incredible second-half comeback at the Olympiastadion.

The Three Lions will now look to repeat that victory when they make their first-ever visit to Dortmund. Ticket details for England Supporters Travel Club members will be announced in due course.
