Latest news

France (W)

🎙 France's head coach Laurent Bonadei: "England have a very strong team. They're ranked fifth by FIFA and are the reigning European champions. Such a team deserves respect. They started the game very actively, applying pressure right from the kickoff. We were a bit taken aback; they usually play at a slower pace, especially with Keira Walsh in midfield. So, it wasn't easy under that kind of pressure. Gradually, step by step, we found our way out of it thanks to our attacking players: a fantastic goal from the right flank by Delphine Cascarino, and a superb cross to Katoto."

🔝 The Player of the Match was awarded to Delphine Cascarino, who delivered the first assist.

Wales (W)

🎙 Wales head coach Rhian Wilkinson: "A major tournament, worldwide attention – it can be intimidating, especially as this is our first match. But we aimed to be here, and now we must learn from this experience. We have two more games ahead, and we need to make our mark. Hopefully, we'll remember how we played towards the end of the match because in the last 20–25 minutes, we really stepped up. It was a tough game. It's always frustrating to concede right before halftime. During the break, I made some changes, and unfortunately, they led to us conceding a second goal. But it's certainly an important experience, and we need to take lessons from it."
