Hannah Hampton's sublime defence-splitting pass kickstarted England's first goal against the Netherlands, showcasing her impressive passing ability and attacking mindset.

England fans in Zurich have adopted a new song, replacing 'Tequila!' with 'Sarina!', in homage to Sarina Wiegman amid team troubles in Euro 2025.

"There were many, especially in the early stages. We were very successful back then, at EURO 2016 and then winning the Confederations Cup the following year. The period after that was...actually worse than mediocre."

Both teams demonstrated significant strength in their recent matches, showing that they could be serious contenders for the upcoming 2026 World Cup, but concerns about early peak performances linger.

John Terry believes that embracing the challenges of playing multiple matches is beneficial for players, emphasizing the need for effective management of their game time.

"For us, he's a fundamental player. We have to work to ensure he performs at his best here."

He's always a goal threat, and he's important to us. He's just so disciplined at always being in the right areas, and the areas we need him to be.

It seems foolish to say, but Scotland were the more dominant side in the first half in Dundee, despite going in two goals down. A couple of sucker-punches - the opener inside a minute and an own-goal for the second - set them back in an otherwise comfortable first 45.

Sara Holmgaard had an exceptional match, scoring once and assisting two more goals, leading Everton to a convincing 3-0 victory over Crystal Palace.

Antony admitted that the city of Manchester influenced his performance at Manchester United, expressing his happiness in Seville. He believes the environment positively impacts his game.

'I'm very happy,' he said yesterday. I've said it a lot of times. Andoni Iraola is very happy at Bournemouth and has said so a lot of times.
