Tournament near misses have helped Wales build and evolve

Wales will end their long wait for a major tournament appearance against the Netherlands in Lucerne on Saturday – and 105-times capped Everton defender Ladd has had a longer journey than most. She won her first Wales cap in Switzerland 14 years ago and was part of teams that went close to qualifying for Euro 2022 and the 2023 World Cup. Ladd said: 'It is frustrating when you're in those moments and you feel the team can do better. 'But I reflect on those campaigns under different managers and I believe it has built us up to where we are now. 'We've learned different styles and we've got different attributes as a group. We've been tested along the way and that experience has rolled into us being in a really good shape now. 'It helps us that we've got to a major tournament having been through all that heartache. We've evolved and with time we've added more layers to our game. 'Losing the World Cup play-off to Switzerland (to a last-gasp goal in extra time) hit hard, especially being in the back line, but I didn't feel in that game we're as confident as we are now.' Ladd returns to Switzerland at the Euros having made her debut in the Swiss town of Saviese against New Zealand in June 2011. Only team-mates Jess Fishlock, Sophie Ingle and Angharad James have won more caps than the 31-year-old. She said: 'I've got such fond memories of that first camp. It was up one of their amazing mountains and it was magical getting my first cap there. 'To go back to Switzerland with this group, with all the hard work we've put in, is a really special moment.' Wales, the lowest-ranked team at Euro 2025, are also in the same group as France and defending champions England. Ladd was born in St Albans in Hertfordshire but qualified to play for Wales through her Haverfordwest-born father. Prep time 🏃‍♀️ — Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@Cymru) July 1, 2025 'I couldn't believe the draw,' said Ladd. 'I had to take another look and let it sink in. 'England is a derby game and the teams in our group are particularly good. But you realise it's the biggest stage and you're going to play the top teams. 'There's the added element that teams may underestimate us because the group is so strong, and that could play to our advantage. But there is no shying away from the quality of the teams in our group.'

Greasy ball will test Wales in Japanese heat

The temperature is expected to be around 30 degrees Celsius when Wales kick off at 2pm local time in Kitakyushu on Saturday attempting to end a run of 17 consecutive Test defeats. It will feel a lot more when high humidity is factored in and the Wales squad, who used a heat chamber at home ahead of the two-Test series, have turned to ice baths, ice towels and cold flannel hats since arriving in Japan. 'I didn't go in the heat chamber – it was too hot,' said interim head coach Sherratt, who has made made 11 changes from the side hammered by England in the Six Nations three months ago. 'But we've done everything we can to prepare the players for this. Players weren't hugely excited about the heat chamber in Cardiff, but they worked really hard. 'It was as close as we would get in the UK to the temperatures in Japan, but it's obviously different here because we're training in it for 80 minutes rather than five or 10 minutes. 'We saw a lot of wet balls and we've trained in the middle of the day here to get used to the heat. 'If I'm honest it's not the heat, it's the ball (that's a problem). It's very difficult to keep the ball dry. 'It's probably going to be a game on TV where the conditions look perfect, but the ball's going to be really greasy and will test your skill set.' There are four survivors from the record 68-14 defeat to England in March, with number eight Taulupe Faletau, prop Nicky Smith, centre Ben Thomas and full-back Blair Murray remaining. Faletau will win his 109th cap against Eddie Jones' Japan but the other two back-row members, Alex Mann and Josh Macleod, have only seven Test appearances between them. 🚨 𝗧î𝗺 𝗖𝘆𝗺𝗿𝘂 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Here is your Wales team to face @JRFURugby on Saturday in Kitakyushu, 6am KO BST! 🔥👇 More ▶️ Cymraeg ▶️ | #JPNvWAL — Welsh Rugby Union 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@WelshRugbyUnion) July 3, 2025 Other than Faletau, only winger Josh Adams, prop Nicky Smith and scrum-half Kieran Hardy possess over 20 caps in the starting line-up. Hooker Dewi Lake captains the side, inexperienced pair Ben Carter and Teddy Williams form a second-row partnership and centre Johnny Williams returns after last featuring at the 2023 World Cup. There is some experience on the bench in prop Gareth Thomas and back-rowers Aaron Wainwright and Tommy Reffell. Sherratt said: 'We've had three weeks prep and it (selection) is a mixture of recent club form and trying to get some combinations that we've seen in training. 'It's a new coaching group and we've tried to let the players start on an even playing field and select on what we've seen. 'We feel conditions are probably going to be tough to start with, and to have some real quality experience off the bench will be massive. 'It's not really a 15 we've picked, it's a genuine 23. 'I've learned at Cardiff that you don't throw on all your experience at once because between 60 and 80 (minutes) is where some of the crucial decision-making comes in.' The second Test will be played in Kobe on Saturday week.

News of Jota's death has sent shockwaves throughout football, with tributes flooding in from across the world. Wolves, who signed him from Atletico Madrid in 2017 before selling him to Liverpool in 2020, posted on X: 'We are heartbroken.

Close rivals Everton and Manchester United were among the Premier League clubs to send their condolences, while UEFA announced a moment of silence would be observed at Women's Euro 2025 matches on Thursday and Friday. The 'devastated' Portuguese Football Federation paid a glowing tribute to the two brothers. 'Diogo Jota was not only a fantastic player with almost 50 caps for the national team, but also an extraordinary person who was respected by all his team-mates and opponents. He had a contagious joy and was a reference point in his own community,' it said in a statement. 'We have lost two champions. Their deaths represent irreparable losses for Portuguese football, and we will do everything we can to honour their legacy every day.' Fans have left wreaths, scarves and shirts at a makeshift shrine outside Anfield, with deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner, who was attending the Local Government Association annual conference in Liverpool, among those to lay flowers in person. The accident came less than two weeks after Jota married his long-term partner Rute Cardoso. The couple have three children together. A statement from local police said Guardia Civil, investigating the accident at 1230am Thursday in the municipality of Cernadilla, Zamora, said: 'In the absence of a conclusion of the experts' evidence, everything points that a car left the road, due to a tyre blowout while overtaking.

I know you will always be with them. Rest in Peace, Diogo and Andre. We will all miss you.' Não faz sentido. Ainda agora estávamos juntos na Seleção, ainda agora tinhas casado. À tua familia, à tua mulher e aos teus filhos, envio os meus sentimentos e desejo-lhes toda a força do mundo. Sei que estarás sempre com eles. Descansem em Paz, Diogo e André. Vamos todos sentir… — Cristiano Ronaldo (@Cristiano) July 3, 2025 Jota scored 65 goals in 182 appearances for Liverpool, with nine of those goals coming last season as Arne Slot's side won the Premier League title, having also lifted the FA Cup and Carabao Cup. He signed for Wolves, initially on loan, from Atletico Madrid in the summer of 2017 and helped Wolves win the Championship in his first season, scoring 44 goals in 131 appearances before his move to Anfield. Jota began his career with Portuguese side Pacos de Ferreira before moving to Atletico, where he did not play a game but was loaned out to Porto. His brother spent time in Porto's youth team before playing senior football for Gondomar and second-tier side Penafiel. 'The loss of two young lives linked to the world of football fills us with pain and consternation,' said a Penafiel statement. 'At this difficult time, Futebol Clube Penafiel extends its most sincere condolences to the family, friends and all those who shared moments of life and passion for sport with Andre and Diogo.'
