The 34-year-old played a total of 66 international matches in the German goal. Her debut in the A-national team was in 2012 in the 5-0 win in the European Championship qualifying match against Turkey.

"For me, it was always clear that I would be available for the national team as long as my competitive sports career continues. It has always filled me with pride to represent my country and hear the anthem. Even if there were probably more games on the bench than on the pitch. Football is a team sport, and that makes so much of it," said Schult about her career end.
