"Today, Ballisager plays for Bayern Munich, the club that brings together the many strands of her experience. "Here, I've found what I really like," she says. "Precision, possession, physical presence, tactical discipline." Elements she learned on her travels all come together here. At 1.71 metres tall, she commands the centre of defence - composed, efficient and unobtrusive. And that's also true of the national team: more than 70 international caps speak for themselves. There, Ballisager is vice-captain, behind a certain Pernille Harder."
"Harder and Ballisager share a friendship that has deep roots in their years together at Viborg. So it's hardly surprising that Ballisager sought the trusted advice of her compatriot before moving to Munich and asked her about life at FCB. "I wanted to get a feel for the club, get to know the players, the staff and the team. Pernille was very positive, she told me how nice everything is here," recalls Ballisager."
"On Wednesday evening, the two will face off in the final match of the league phase against the only Norwegian representatives in Europe's premier women's club competition. Bayern are in sixth place with ten points, level on points with Juventus (4th) and Real Madrid (5th), and just one point ahead of Wolfsburg (7th), Arsenal (8th) and Manchester United (9th). The gap to leaders Barcelona is three points."
