England had some royal encouragement at the Women’s European Championship on Wednesday with Prince William in the crowd to watch the Lionesses in their crucial match against the Netherlands.

England face a “must-win” clash with the Netherlands at Euro 2025 as the Lionesses look to keep their European title defence alive. An opening defeat to France on Saturday night means the holders will be heading home if they lose to the Netherlands and France pick up at least a point against Wales.
