Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Letzigrund Stadion will turn into a battlefield for France and England.
- 5' The home supporters are growing impatient. France must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 10' Lucy Bronze has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 13 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 15' France are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against England's shape.
- 20' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 25' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Grace Clinton suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' Lauren Hemp has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 35' It is a cagey affair so far. France in their trying to find a way past England's compact .

- 44' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 49' England seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 54' Supporters expect more eagerness from Keira Walsh, as he is very good at scoring at Letzigrund Stadion with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
- 59' It looks like no one’s ball. France is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 60' England ring the changes. Beth Mead has done his job and it is now time for Chloe Kelly to step up.
- 62' Clara Mateo has so much to prove this time. He replaces Marie-Antoinette Katoto on 62 minute.
- 67' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 72' named a earlier, and opted for a in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 75' That is a card for England. Ella Toone will be fuming at that decision.
- 77' Time for substitution for England. Georgia Stanway is replaced by Grace Clinton.
- 80' The France manager makes a substitution. Elisa De Almeida departs to be replaced by Melween N'Dongala.
- 85' The travelling England supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
