Women’s Euro 2025: five-star Spain lay down marker before Germany enter fray – live | Women’s Euro 2025Notice: Undefined variable: newid in D:\vertrigo\www\voice\see.php on line 32  Key events Mourners are set to gather and honour Liverpool footballer Diogo Jota at a wake in Portugal on Friday morning, a local parish priest has said. Tottenham appoint Martin Ho as head coachSpeaking of Martin Ho, Tottenham have just announced his appointment. The 35-year-old has penned a deal that will keep him in north London until 2028.
In other WSL news, Tottenham have moved to appoint Martin Ho as their new head coach in recent days. It is understood that Ho signed a three-year deal this week. Manchester City appointed Andrée Jeglertz as their new women’s team head coach yesterday. The 53-year-old signed a four-year deal at the club upon his arrival. He succeeds Gareth Taylor, who was sacked in March.
We are also lucky enough to have legendary Chelsea manager, WSL icon and United States women’s national team head coach Emma Hayes on board as a columnist over the next few weeks. Here is what she had to say in her first column… The Guardian Football team have been incredibly busy over the last few weeks putting together features, interviews and team guides to see you all through the tournament. Let me first point you in the direction of this absolutely mammoth guide to all 368 players appearing at Euro 2025 this month. Feel free to email me or matchday.live@theguardian.com with any thoughts or feelings today. Score predictions are welcome too. It would also be good to know who you think deserves to start for England when the Lionesses take on France tomorrow. You can keep up to date with the race for the Euro 2025 Golden Boot here: Following last night’s 4-0 win over Portugal, Spain midfielder Mariona Caldentey said: “Obviously, going 4-0 up at half-time is wonderful. You can always improve, and we’ll conduct a thorough analysis of the game, but I think it’s a good way to start. We scored goals, we gained confidence, and it was a nice first game.” Elsewhere in Group B, tournament favourites Spain kicked off their Euro 2025 campaign with a thumping 5-0 win over Portugal. Esther González netted twice, with Vicky López, Alexia Putellas and Cristina Martín-Prieto also getting on the scoresheet. Yesterday in Switzerland, Belgium and Italy kicked of proceedings in Group B at the Stade Tourbillon. It was a closely contested match but a goal from Arianna Caruso on the brink of half-time was enough to seal the points for the Italians. Floral tributes line the outskirts of Anfield following the death of Diogo Jota.  “These things are simply not meant to happen and, more than anything, Jota’s death is a personal tragedy. He was 28, recently married, a father of three and lost his life alongside his brother. One can only imagine the immense heartbreak being felt by his family and friends. And you only have to glance across mainstream and social media to see his passing has had a wider impact, few places more than at the club he called home for the past five years. Not for the first time, Liverpool Football Club are in mourning.” Today, we continue remembering the life of Diogo Jota, who tragically died with his younger brother, André Silva, in a car accident in north-western Spain yesterday morning. Tributes have continued to be shared across the world, with flowers, scarves and Liverpool shirts also lining the outskirts of Anfield in remembrance. This evening, as the Euro 2025 group stage continues in Switzerland, teams and fans will pay tribute to the brothers prior to kick-off when Denmark face Sweden and Germany take on Poland.  The WSL 2 club Southampton are on the verge of appointing the former Blackburn manager Simon Parker as their head coach, the Guardian can reveal. The 39-year-old spent the past two seasons in charge of Blackburn in the second tier, then known as the Women’s Championship, but he left the Lancashire club in June after Blackburn’s voluntary withdrawal from the division. He has a good reputation after keeping Blackburn clear of the relegation zone last term despite their low playing budget. Parker has previously coached at Lewes and in Portugal and this move to Hampshire is understood to take him back closer to family and friends. Southampton had been searching for a permanent head coach since Remi Allen’s departure by mutual consent in February. Southampton finished eighth last season, a comfortable 14 points clear of the relegation zone but 22 points off the pace set by the champions, London City Lionesses. PreambleHello, good morning and welcome to another Matchday live. It’s day three of Euro 2025 and we’ve got two exciting fixtures lined up for this evening. In the early match, Denmark face Sweden at Stade de Genève in Geneva. Then, we move over to St. Gallen where 2022 finalists Germany take on Poland. I’ll be with you all day. Well, at least until the first game. Let’s do this. Source link Posted: 2025-07-04 10:52:50 |
