Lionesses’ impact players are viewed as an important piece of the team’s puzzle and have a key role to play in their Euro 2025 quarter-finalThere was confusion among England’s starters on Sunday night when both Beth Mead and Aggie Beever-Jones scored and wheeled away clicking their fingers. It was an in-joke between the substitutes, or “finishers” as they are referred to internally, viewed as an important a piece of the team’s puzzle as much as those who step out of the tunnel before kick-off.“It’s great,” the Arsenal forward Chloe Kelly says. “We have a little group of us, the finishers, the positive clique [pronounced click by Kelly, a play on words] we call it. We said if one of us comes on to score then we should do that as our celebration. Continue reading...

Twenty-five years since Olympic glory, the perennial underachievers try again with a last-eight clash with ItalyThe perennial underachievement of the Norway women’s national team is one of football’s great mysteries. How can a side packed with some of the world’s finest players continually make early exits at tournaments, fail to look cohesive and even endure a chastening 8-0 defeat against England at Euro 2022?

31 h. ago Euro 2025 is shaping up to be a roaring success. Now for more jeopardy

Local and travelling fans have been captivated and most problems could have been avoided with more spending or careThe headline in SonntagsBlick Sport reads: “Lia hier, Lia da, Lia überall.” It is not metaphorical; Switzerland’s Lia Wälti is literally here, there and everywhere. From billboards and tram stops to produce packets and tourism adverts, the Arsenal midfielder is the poster girl of Euro 2025, the captain, the Champions League winner, the fulcrum of a team who captured the heart of the country as they set up a blockbuster quarter-final with the world champions, Spain.There were raised eyebrows when Switzerland was announced as the host country. The largest stadium is the 38,512-capacity home of Basel, St Jakob-Park, where the opening game and final are being played.
