The lowdown on UEFA Women's EURO 2025 Day 1️⃣2️⃣
The group stage at EURO 2025 will be concluded today with Group D taking centre stage. Here's what to look out for with the final two teams booking their spots in the quarter final. Before we get into today's action, what happened yesterday? ⏮️ Sweden and Germany battled it out for top spot in Zurich and it was the Scandinavians who ultimately prevailed. A bizarre handball from Germany's Carlotta Wamser saw her sent off in the first half and that allowed Sweden to stroll to a 4-1 win. Advertisement In the other game, Denmark's dreadful tournament reached a new nadir as they lost 3-2 to Poland to finish the group stage with three defeats from three. Who is playing today? 👀 England take on Wales in St. Gallen knowing that a win will see them through to the last eight. Wales haven't exactly lit up the tournament but Cymru will want nothing more than to get one over on their rivals. In the group's other game, France take on Netherlands with Les Bleus looking to maintain their 100 per cent record so far. Player to watch 🔎 📸 Matthias Hangst - 2025 Getty Images England's 4-0 hammering of Netherlands last time out was arguably the Lionesses best performance since the World Cup semi-finals two years ago. Advertisement Sarina Wiegman's side were sensational all over the pitch but nowhere more so than in midfield. Georgia Stanway has had to endure a tough season domestically with Bayern Munich, suffering a ligament tear in January which many thought would keep her out of the tournament entirely. But Stanway has proved those doubters wrong and will be integral later as England take on Wales. Key storyline 🔑 Can Netherlands cause one of the biggest upsets of the tournament so far and beat France? It's going to be an uphill task for Andries Jonker and his side, with the Oranje so throughly beaten by England last time out. Advertisement The Dutch will need to beat Les Bleus by three goals to have any chance of making it to the last eight. Must-watch video 🎥 A special moment for a special player as Fridolina Rolfö celebrated her 100th cap yesterday. Fun facts 📊 Wales have committed the fewest fouls in the tournament so far with just 13. Wales are also bottom when it comes to pass completion, average possession and shots attempted. England have never lost to Wales in their 10 previous meetings, winning nine and drawing one. France are unbeaten in their last five games against Netherlands, winning three and drawing two. Our predictions 🔮 Netherlands 0-3 France England 3-1 Wales 📸 Matthias Hangst - 2025 Getty Images

How to Watch Chelsea vs PSG for Free From Anywhere Chelsea vs PSG: Club World Cup Final Preview Expanded tournament reaches New York climax Chelsea and PSG arrive in Manhattan with history jangling in their boots.

Attendances have flickered rather than flared, yet both clubs are already more than eighty million pounds richer, and another seven million awaits the victors. Advertisement Form book tilts towards Parisian power Chelsea's progress has been tidy, but PSG swagger into Madison Square Garden on a thunderous run. The French champions crushed Inter Milan five nil in the Champions League final, dismantled Atletico Madrid four nil in their opening match here, then swept aside Real Madrid by the same margin in the semi-final. That torrent of goals leaves Mauricio Pochettino's old employers facing the sternest of exams. Photo IMAGO Tactical intrigue under bright lights Mauricio Pochettino must conjure midfield control if Chelsea are to slow a Paris attack that glides between the lines. Expect Enzo Fernández to sit deep, allowing Cole Palmer to knit counters and stretch a defence marshalled by Marquinhos. PSG will funnel possession towards Kylian Mbappé, whose acceleration on the indoor turf could be decisive, while Vitinha's metronomic passing will look to expose any hesitation in blue shirts.
