Preamble
Hello and welcome to coverage of England v Wales on the final day of the Euro 2025 group stage. It’s still all to play for in Group D with both quarter-final places up for grabs. England need a convincing win against the Welsh this evening to guarantee their place in the knockout stages, with the Netherlands taking on France in the other group meeting. A win for Les Bleus should see the Lionesses move out of the group as long as they avoid defeat, whereas victory for the Netherlands could make things very interesting.
Meanwhile, Wales are currently bottom of the group with no points. Tenchically, they can still qualify, although they will need a miracle and plenty of goals against England to make it. Nevertheless, we’re in for a very exciting evening.
Let the battle of Britain commence.
Kick-off for this one is at 8pm BST – join me!
