Club career

[edit]

Brand had played in boys' teams at FV Dudenhofen and JSG JFV Ganerb before she moved up to the youth department of TSG 1899 Hoffenheim via the juniors of FC Speyer 09 in winter 2018. There she played in the U17s and then with the U20s in the 2nd Bundesliga. After 37 league games, she moved up to the first team in 2020.[4]  In the 2020/21 Bundesliga season, she finished third with TSG Hoffenheim. In the 2021/22 Champions League, she qualified with Hoffenheim for the first group stage.[5] Here they finished third in their group. Brand was used in nine games and scored three goals.

Brand joined VfL Wolfsburg in summer 2022.[5][6] In May 2023, she won the DFB-Pokal Frauen.[7]

International career

[edit]

Youth

[edit]

In 2015 and 2016, Brand played eight games for the Southwest U14 in the national cup, in 2017 and 2018 she played for the Baden U16 and U18 as well as the Southwest U16 and the German U16 national team in the national cup. With the German U16s she also took part in the Nordic Cup. With the U17 team, she qualified for the 2019 European Championship. At the tournament in Bulgaria, she played as right-back in the 4–0 win in the first game against England and in the 3–2 group-stage defeat by the Netherlands. Since she was the only player in the finals against the Netherlands, she received a yellow-red card, she was suspended for the third group game. In the semifinals against Portugal she then played on the left flank. A 2–0 win saw them progress to the final, where they met Jong-Oranje again, where she once again played at left flank. Since the score was 1–1 after regulation time, there was a penalty shoot-out, but she was no longer on the pitch. The goalkeepers were able to save a total of seven penalties, but the German goalkeeper Pauline Nelles scored once more, and the German team won the title for the seventh time. Five games followed with the U19s, in March 2020 at a tournament in La Manga. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the qualifiers for the U19 European Championship and the final rounds were cancelled, and Brand was not able to play any competitive games with the U19s.

Senior

In April 2021, after Melanie Leupolz and Klara Bühl had to miss the games against Australia and Norway due to muscular problems and minor injuries, she was called up for the two games of the senior national team.[8] On 10 April, against Australia, she came on as a 60th minute substitute for Tabea Waßmuth. Two minutes later, she was able to beat Clare Polkinghorne in a running duel and scored her first international goal, before assisting the fourth goal scored by Laura Freigang in the 65th minute.[9][10][11] In qualifying for the 2023 World Cup, she played in all six games and scored three goals in the games against Israel and Turkey.

For the Euro 2022 in England, she was called up to the squad by the national coach Martina Voss-Tecklenburg.[12] The German team reached the final, but lost to England. Brand was used in all six games.
