UEFA Women's Euros: France Knock Out Netherlands

France made it to the next round of the UEFA Women's Euros 2025 after earning a dominating 5-2 win over Netherlands on Sunday. The loss pushes Nethelands out of the European championship. Netherlands had taken a 2-1 lead in the first half but their defence just collapsed after the break as they conceded four goals to slip to a massive defeat.
