England v Netherlands

The last two winners of the Women’s Euro – England in 2022 and the Netherlands in 2017 – come face to face in a crucial Group D game.

Alex Scott is at the Letzigrund Stadium in Zurich on a huge occasion for England manager Sarina Wiegman and her Lionesses. The last two winners of the Women’s Euro – England in 2022 and the Netherlands in 2017 – come face to face in a crucial Group D game. Both of those victorious sides were managed by Dutch maestro Wiegman.

After the opening challenge against France, this match will have a strong bearing on England’s progress in defence of their title. A rejuvenated Lionesses squad includes Euro 2022 winners such as Leah Williamson, Lucy Bronze and Lauren Hemp, alongside newer names such as goalkeeper Hannah Hampton and striker Aggie Beevor-Jones. But the Netherlands will be stern opposition. They pushed eventual world champions Spain all the way to extra time in their World Cup quarter-final, and their record goalscorer Vivianne Miedema will be keen to make an impression after missing that tournament with injury.

A panel of experts are alongside Alex in Zurich, with Robyn Cowen and Rachel Brown-Finnis in the commentary box. There's also all the latest from the Wales camp as they prepare for a crucial game against France.
