Here’s a reminder of what happened in yesterday’s Group C fixtures…
Preamble
Hello, hallo and welcome to coverage of the huge Euro 2025 clash between England and the Netherlands. This could prove to be one of the games of the group stage with both teams vying for a place in the quarter-finals.
For the Lionesses, a win today is absolutely imperative. Anything less and they can pretty much wave goodbye to any hope of progressing which, quite frankly, would be a disaster.
England fans know just how important a win today is, Sarina Wiegman knows it, the players know it. But getting such a result will not be easy. The Netherlands possess one of the strongest squads in Europe and can pose a huge threat to any opponent.
This is where Group D will really come to life.
Kick-off for this one is at 5pm BST – you don’t want to miss it!
