She got her dream job at the age of 18- an announcer for football, and she made her début during the 2012 Champions League tournament, when she got to announce during the finals.

They ended up leaving the party together, and going to an expensive restaurant. They have been happily dating ever since. That was until the finals of the 2014 World Cup.

She hid her excitement when Mario Goetze scored in overtime, winning the game for Germany. Afterwards, Lena convinced the disappointed soccer star to go to a party and forget about the loss. She went home to change, and went to meet him at the party. Turns out she got the wrong address, and accidentaly attended Germany's celebratory party. Though she knows she should leave, she decides to congratulate the champions. Thomas Mueller invites her to take a drink, which she hesitantly accepts. Next thing she knows she's drunk out of her mind- and it's morning. Did I mention that she's in bed, naked, with the one and only Mario Goetze?
