GERMANY-FBL-WOMEN-WOHLLEBEN

Former German football player Baerbel Wohlleben, first German women's football champion and first woman winning the award "goal of the month" in 1974 shows a medal during an AFP interview at her home in Ingelheim am Rhein near Mainz, Germany, on February 27, 2019. - At 75, German pensioner Baerbel Wohlleben still clearly remembers the moment in 1974 when a football journalist asked, "but when you header the ball, doesn't it mess up your hair?" At that time, Wohlleben had already turned 30, but was only officially three years into her career as a footballer, because until 1971 the German Football Association (DFB) banned women from playing in competitions. Moreover, any clubs allowing women to train or play at their facilities was liable to be sanctioned. (Photo by Daniel ROLAND / AFP) (Photo credit should read DANIEL ROLAND/AFP via Getty Images)
