Germany’s Linda Dallmann came off the bench to score one goal and make another as her side hammered neighbour Austria 4-1 to move top of Women’s Nations League A1, with group rival Netherlands coming from behind to win 2-1 away to Scotland.

The Germans, who drew 2-2 in their first game against the Dutch, bounced back after conceding a goal in the third minute, with Laura Freigang levelling six minutes before the break.

Dallmann entered the fray at halftime and scored 10 minutes later before teeing up Giovanna Hoffmann for the third, with Vivien Endemann rounding out the scoring in the 79th minute.

Germany tops the group after two games, with the Dutch in second place, also on four points, after scoring two second-half goals in Glasgow. Austria is third on three points, with Scotland bottom without a point.
