Group D of the Women's Euros is a tight affair heading into the final round of matches and could have the prospect of England, Wales and the Netherlands end up on the same number of points.

France top the group after two victories and are in prime position to reach the competition's next phase which is the quarter-finals.

After the French, Sarina Wiegman's England sit second on three points, ahead of the Netherlands in third who boast the same points but have a lower goal difference.

Wales meanwhile sit bottom of the group on zero points, but can still qualify for the next stage of the competition which is being held in Switzerland.

Speaking ahead of the big clash against Wales, Wiegman said: "I learned about the history and the rivalry but, again, we are focused on what we want to do and how we want to play.

"We have to move the ball quickly and be patient. We have also seen that Wales are compact and sometimes higher up the pitch too. We expect everything and we will try to break that down.

"The tension is building up again because we play tomorrow. It was a must-win (against the Netherlands).

"I think the players are very together and are taking responsibility and then you have to perform again. That is what we are going to do tomorrow as well."

Should Wales beat England tomorrow and France beat the Netherlands, it means that Wales, England and the Netherlands will all be on three points.

In that scenario, it would present a question of which side would progress along with the French to the quarter-finals.

England could lose to Wales, but providing the goal difference swing is not sufficient enough and the Lionesses avoid a result such as a 5-0 hammering, and the French beat the Dutch, then Wiegman's side will progress.

Similarly, if Wales beat England, but the Dutch get at least a draw against the French in their game, then the Netherlands will progress to the next round.

For Wales to go through, they will have to beat England by five goals to ensure a significant enough swing in the goal difference, and hope that the French beat the Dutch to ensure the Netherlands remain on three points.

England vs Wales and France against the Netherlands kicks off at 8pm on Sunday evening, with the final group games starting at the same time to ensure nobody knows ahead of time how matches have progressed.
