Record digital audiences watch three of four quarter-finals, including England’s match against Sweden, live on the BBC

France was inspired by Delphine Cascarino’s stunning six-minute spell in the second half and surged past the Netherlands 5-2 on Sunday to reach the quarterfinals at the Women’s European Championship.

Netherlands were in a tough group alongside France and England, but cracks started to appear early and they won't be happy about their early exit.

Netherlands midfielder Danielle van de Donk says she will consider retiring from international football after the European Championship and confirmed it would be her last major tournament with the national side.

The Netherlands team was asked “Do you believe in miracles?” ahead of its final group-stage game at the Women’s European Championship.

The early elimination for the Netherlands from Euro 2025 has triggered a storm of criticism in the Dutch media, much of it aimed at the Royal Dutch Football Association (KNVB). The KNVB has come under fire from fans and the media after the Oranje women’s disappointing early exit from Euro 2025.

Elsewhere, Germany and France offer a showdown between two European powers, while Switzerland will try to stay alive against a heavily-favored and more proficient Spain. Norway vs. Italy is probably the least thrilling on paper, but it’s a chance to watch stars Ada Hegerberg and Caroline Graham Hansen book a spot in the semifinals.
