Group D

The knockout places in Group D will be decided on Sunday.

France have won both of their games so far which means all they have to do to progress is avoid defeat by the Netherlands by a margin of three goals or more. If England do no beat Wales they are also through.

The Netherlands, meanwhile, need to beat France by three goals or more. The picture changes if England do not beat Wales as then just a win will see them progress. A draw against France would be enough if the Lionesses lose to Wales.

For England, the simplest route is a win against Wales which would book them a quarter-final spot. They will also progress if they draw and the Netherlands do not beat France or if France beat the Netherlands.

Wales will reach the quarter-finals if they beat England by four goals or more and the Netherlands lose to France.
