At the tournament in Bulgaria, she played as right-back in the 4–0 win in the first game against England and in the 3–2 group-stage defeat by the Netherlands. Since she was the only player in the finals against the Netherlands, she received a yellow-red card, she was suspended for the third group game. In the semifinals against Portugal she then played on the left flank. A 2–0 win saw them progress to the final, where they met Jong-Oranje again, where she once again played at left flank. Since the score was 1–1 after regulation time, there was a penalty shoot-out, but she was no longer on the pitch. The goalkeepers were able to save a total of seven penalties, but the German goalkeeper Pauline Nelles scored once more, and the German team won the title for the seventh time. Five games followed with the U19s, in March 2020 at a tournament in La Manga. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the qualifiers for the U19 European Championship and the final rounds were cancelled, and Brand was not able to play any competitive games with the U19s.
