Sweden v England: Women's Euro 2025 quarter-final live
Briefly

Lucy Bronze emphasized the influence of England's success in boosting women's football across Europe and globally. Italy advanced to the Euro 2025 quarter-finals after defeating Norway, marking their first appearance in the last four since 1997. England and Sweden faced off in a much-anticipated rematch after England's dominant victory in the Euro 2022 semi-final. Though England had a shaky start, they rebounded to qualify for the quarter-finals, while Sweden maintained perfection with three wins in the group stage, setting the stage for a competitive match.
Every other team wants to replicate what England did in 2022, what the Netherlands did before us, and really boost women's football and we know that success comes from that.
One quarter-final has already been played and it saw Italy beat Norway to progress to the last four at a women's major tournament for the first time since 1997.
The Lionesses had a bumpy start to their campaign but finished the group stage strongly to reach the last eight, while Sweden have recorded three wins from three so far.
The game is a repeat of the Euro 2022 semi-final where England beat Sweden 4-0 but the scoreline is not set to be as one-sided this time around.
