The Lionesses, however, thought they had taken the lead inside 16 minutes at the Stadion Letzigrund in Zurich, only for Alessia Russo’s goal to be disallowed for a marginal offside ruling on Beth Mead. It was a decision England’s head coach described as a “huge surprise” — so what exactly happened, and why didn’t the goal stand?

England midfielder Georgia Stanway said they "underperformed" in defeat by France but there is "no crisis" at Euro 2025.

England and France agreed Thursday to “coordinate” and “cooperate” with each other’s nuclear programs for their own safety and the defense of Europe.

England's bid to defend their Euros title took a major hit, as France outclassed the Lionesses on a night where the midfield battle proved decisive.

The marquee matchup, which France won 2-1, drew 690,000 viewers, a 329% spike from the previous group stage average.

LONDON (AP) — French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday urged Britain to stick close to its neighbors despite its exit from the European Union, saying France and the U.K. will “save Europe” by standing for democracy, law and international order in a dangerous world.

BBC Sport looks at who the Lionesses could play in the Euro 2025 knockouts, with Germany or Sweden possible quarter-final opponents.

Georgia Stanway says England are determined to “put things right” in their second 2025 European Championship match against the Netherlands and move on from the France defeat, which she described as “like a bad night out”.
