Led by a fantastic performance from Julie Page who finished with 18 points, nine rebounds, three steals and two assists, Tom Maher's side never looked back after a strong first half and will go into Sunday's final game against Ukraine knowing that they already have a place in Poland 2011 assured.

Jo Leedham added 15 points and five boards while Kim Butler finished with 12 points for GB.

Germany were led by 14 Roli-Ann Nikagbatse points, with Anne Breitreiner adding 12.

Page opened the scoring with an offensive rebound after GB had won the tip, and another good piece of work on the boards from Page saw GB lead 10-3 with just under three minutes gone to force a German timeout.

The move had only limited effect, and with Page taking her tally to ten, GB went into the first break 20-11 ahead.

Stafford opened the second period scoring three and Leedham made it a 15 point game with a three-point play, putting GB 30-19 ahead with four minutes of the half remaining.

Jenaya Wade-Fray made it 38-21 for the biggest lead of the game with two minutes left, a great Stafford pass to Azania Stewart saw her score a lay-up and with Leedham hitting a trey GB went into the locker room with a commanding 47-24 lead.

Stina Barnert opened the second half scoring for Germany, and the visitors whittled the lead down to 48-34 with 6:22 when Linda Frohich hit a trey, forcing a timeout from Maher.

Leedham scored from the Land of Plenty out of the break, and although the visitors cut the lead to 11 at one stage, GB went into the final break 59-45 ahead.

Margret Skuballa hit the first points for Germany in the final stanza, but a Page trey saw GB open a 65-50 lead with 6:37 on the lock to force a timeout from the visitors, and when the game restarted
Butler made it an 18 point game as she also drained from downtown.

Steph Collins joined the trey-fest, and Britain went into the final two minutes of the game with a 77-57 lead and the game was effectively over as Maher poured his bench into the game.

GB Head Coach, Tom Maher said after the victory: "We came to prove we could be competitive and I think we've done that. We got within nine against Slovakia and I knew we could do that then. We can win games, and this team has massive potential to improve, and they have which has got us to the finals.

"At the start of the campaign we wouldn't have qualified, but when we started playing some games you could see the progress had taken us to the point we could win games.

"When we won in Slovakia we did it by flat-out sticking at it and keeping being aggressive. We ran over Germany tonight, and Julie gave us a great start with her rebounding. It's a matter of being there all of the time and competing all the time - it was a magnificent effort."
