The lowdown on UEFA Women's EURO 2025: Day 17
Here's what to expect from day 17 of the tournament in Switzerland.
Before we get into today's action, what happened last time out? ⏮️
📸 SEBASTIEN BOZON - AFP or licensors
Germany, finalists in 2022, went head to head with France in their quarter-final clash in Basel.
France initially took the lead in the first half as Grace Geyoro calmly converted from the penalty spot, after Kathrin Hendrich was shown a straight red card for pulling Griedge Mbock's hair.
Sjoeke Nüsken put Germany back on level terms in the first half but neither side was able to find that all important winner in the second half or in extra-time.
Ultimately, the game went to penalties and Germany narrowly edged out France 6-5 to progress into the semi-finals.
Who is playing today? 👀The first semi-final tie will see current holders England take on Italy in Geneva.
The Lionesses booked their place in the last four with a penalty shootout triumph over Sweden, despite finding themselves 2-0 down at half-time.
Italy, on the other hand, produced a narrow 2-1 win over Norway in their quarter-final clash to reach the latter stages.
Player to watch 🔎
It's fair to say few have been more impactful at this tournament for England than Michelle Agyemang.
The teenager only made her senior Lionesses debut back in April, when she scored a stunning volley against Belgium in the Nations League.
Here in Switzerland, she has been one of Sarina Wiegman's go-to players off the bench, and she proved exactly why in the quarter-final against Sweden last week.
Her perfectly taken goal in the second half put the Lionesses back on level terms in the tie, ensuring they could take things to extra-time, before they eventually triumphed on penalties.
Key storyline 🔑

Italy have, undoubtedly, been one of the feel good stories at this summer's EUROs.
Heading into this tournament, the Azzurre hadn't qualified for the semi-finals of the competition since the late 90s, having only made it as far as the quarter-finals in 2009 and 2013.
In the last two European championships, Italy failed to even make it out of their group.
Which is why you could see exactly what it meant to Cristiana Girelli, when her double against Norway ensured their place in the final four for the first time in over two decades.
Overcoming reigning champions England will be a tough ask for Italy but their impressive run thus far speaks for itself.
Must-watch video 🎥
It may have little relevance to this evening's game in Geneva but one of the moments of the tournament so far is Ann-Katrin Berger's remarkable stop against France in the quarter-finals.
Germany spent the majority of that game up against it, due to being a player down, but the goalkeeper's late save to keep out a misdirected headed clearance, which appeared to be heading into the back of the net, was simply unbelievable.
Fun facts 📊
Italy have lost just one of their last seven matches heading into this tie.
England have won seven of their last 10 games in all competitions against Italy (D1 L2), that said, they've lost each of the two head-to-heads at the EUROs, in 1987 and 2009 respectively.
England are the first reigning champions to reach a EUROs semi-final since Germany back in 2013, and on the last five occasions the reigning champions have featured in the semi-finals, they have gone on to reach the final.
Our prediction 🔮
England 2-1 Italy

Liverpool's €90m deal for Rodrygo is about to ESCALATE
There are STILL plenty of moving parts to Liverpool's summer transfer window. Hugo Ekitike will be the club's new striker - bringing the total spent this summer to well over £250m. The Reds however are unlikely to stop there. A new centre-back could be added before the window closes and a new winger may be required depending on what happens with Luis Diaz. LFC x New Era Shop Now LFC Signed Merch Shop Now LFC x Titleist Shop Now The Colombian appears to be heading to Bayern Munich - with the sides drawing closer to agreeing a deal which would be acceptable to Liverpool decision-makers. Although Liverpool have got Cody Gakpo, Florian Wirtz and potentially Rio Ngumoha at their disposal, they have been mentioned as strong suitors for Rodrygo too. Rodrygo willing to leave Real Madrid The Real Madrid winger looks like he will be frozen out at the Bernabeu under new head coach Xabi Alonso - who has a constellation of other stars to accommodate in attack. It's believed that Rodrygo IS willing to accept a transfer away from the Spanish capital and Liverpool are a prime contender for his signature. Although it's quiet right at this moment between Liverpool and Rodrygo, noted transfer journalist Ben Jacobs expects there to be movement in the next few days. Things are about to escalate "If it all stays the same at Real, there's a clear direction of travel that the player will ask to leave,' he told the Born N'Red YouTube channel. "Then things will escalate in the last week of July and in early August. And at that point, Real Madrid will invite bids. "Unlike Newcastle and Isak, if Rodrygo tells Real Madrid directly in the next few days he wants to leave, Real will accommodate that." €90m could secure Rodrygo A transfer fee of €100m has been touted for the Brazil international but Jacobs reckons he could come to Anfield for cheaper than that. And if Liverpool manage to get what they require from Bayern for Diaz then there is a real possibility of the 24-year-old arriving. "The magic number I'm told is €90 million — in and around, depending on the structure of the deal,' he said. "So Liverpool could be a possibility, but it would obviously require Díaz to depart." © IMAGO - Rodrygo Liverpool
