Switzerland v Iceland follows in second Group A gamePlayer guide | David Squires’ wallchart | Mail TomSarina Wiegman has talked of England being “too sloppy” and playing too many short passes in the wrong areas, allowing France to press strongly. “Playing against France is totally different,” said the England head coach, “we had to be straight away at our very best or be punished and that’s what happened. At the same time we’ve got an opportunity to put it right.” Players have been equally frank. “We didn’t show up today,” said Jess Carter. “We’re all frustrated because we know we can give more. The only way is up ”And we must I guess discuss the offside call that denied England the lead in the first half after Alesia Russo netted. “I’m unsure how that was given,” said Beth Mead, who was deemed fractionally offside after a VAR check. There really ought to be an “umpire’s call” style option for marginal decisions such as that. Continue reading...

The folded bodies of the players in white shirts at the close told the story. England were lacklustre and they are down, but they are not out. The Lionesses kicked off their European title defence with a 2-1 defeat by an impressive France team, delivering Sarina Wiegman’s first major tournament defeat outside of a final.After a promising and pressing start fell away, Marie-Antoinette Katoto and Sandy Baltimore delivered for a resurgent France, Keira Walsh’s late strike from a corner reducing the reigning European champions’ blushes. A late charge was not enough and England have a lot of work to do to escape the tournament’s group of death. Continue reading...

Sometimes it really is better to travel than to arrive. After a thoroughly enjoyable journey to their first major tournament Wales collided with the 2017 European champions and were left bruised, battered and bewildered.During an instructive encounter in the shadow of Lucerne’s Mount Pilatus, Vivianne Miedema scored her 100th international goal. Perhaps even more significantly Andries Jonker’s side did enough to suggest it would be unwise to assume that England and France are destined to fill Group D’s top two places. Continue reading...

33 h. ago Crawley, Duckett and Root fall cheaply after India set England colossal 608

Second Test D4: India, 587 & 427-6 dec; England, 407 & 72-3India soaring as Shubman Gill claims another centuryAt 5.35pm on the fourth day of what can already be dubbed Shubman Gill’s Test match, the raucous Hollies Stand at Edgbaston broke out into a chant of “stand up if you still believe”. England were 30 for one, having been set a fanciful 608 to win, and General Melchett’s pig-headed unwillingness to look facts in the face sprung to mind.Not that they were stood up for long. Within moments Ben Duckett was the second English batter trudging back to the pavilion, eyes down, after his stumps had been rearranged by Akash Deep. This was the latest gut punch for the hosts on a day that had plenty to choose from, Gill’s earlier 161 – a dream-like follow-up to his first innings 269 – having racked up 427 for six declared before his seamers got to work.
