"We want to build history. "We have reached a milestone but it's not at the end," she said. We will try to stay in this tournament and provide some happiness for her.

It is not very English to win semifinals at major tournaments. Glorious defeat is kind of their thing, and has been for decades.

It’s not just a first major trophy in the offing, but a chance to redefine the sport in that country as well, and they all seem to sense it. That would be the definition of cheeky, and not something seen out of any England player…well, ever. It is even less English to fustigate an opponent at that stage.

Half-time! Germany 1-1 France. Well those last few minutes were thrilling! It's a record goal from Popp, scoring in five consecutive matches, but their lead ...

The history-making team will want to extend their records but Germany are on the hunt to restore their European domination. 2 min: Bilbaut hits the ball out of play just after kick-off for a German goal kick. Sarina Wiegman’s side defeated Sweden 4-0 last night and both Germany and France will want the chance to face off against the hosts. 9 min: Gwinn looks to clear with a long ball but she’s closed down. Germany counter and Huth wins a free kick right on the edge of the box. There’s frantic battles in the midfield but Germany come away the better, building from the back now. 17 min: Rauch is fouled by Diani, giving away a free kick in a good position but Magull’s hit sails over the strikers. 15 min: Germany are being patient in their build-up but the last pass seems rushed. 23 min: The resulting corner from that save almost sees a blunder with Peyraud-Magnin out of position but they bungle it away. The ball comes thundering in but there are too many touches and then Gwinn wins another free kick. 53 min: Germany are so good on the ball and they have had the lion share. 39 min: Malard is fouled and France will have a free kick from their own half.

England beat World No. 2 Sweden 4-0 in the semifinal of the UEFA Women's 2022 Euro, and will face either Germany or France in the final on July 31.

Just like England’s men’s team did last summer at Euro 2020, when it got to the final at Wembley but lost in a penalty shootout to Italy. England lost both times and has never won a major international tournament. England is heading back to Wembley Stadium for a European Championship final.

Hosts England are through to their third UEFA Women's EURO final after sealing their Wembley place with a record winning margin in the last four.

In the second half, we had to take a chance and try to score and go high with the team, but then they continued to score, so it was a tough game today." But then when we had a good period in the game, they scored a goal and they continued, scoring another goal. It is also the first time Sweden have ever lost by more than two goals at a Women's EURO. Going 2-0 down from a set piece early in the second half against a difficult opponent like England is going to be tough. I thought that was the quickest route to goal so I hit it and hoped." During the first half, we got more in the game and we did better. We had the more dangerous chances to score first. In the first 25 minutes, I thought we had chances, even though England did too. Sarina Wiegman sent on Alessio Russo and her first action was a blistering run and centre which Lauren Hemp, from point-blank range, slid in to turn onto the bar. It's also a little relief now, so there's a little party going on in the dressing room and that's really nice. Earps made key saves when needed and, in the second half in particular, the Lionesses made light work of their opposition when they were stretched chasing the game. England chances were rarer, but Georgia Stanway, the extra-time match-winner against Spain, jinked inside and tested Hedvig Lindahl, who was facing the Lionesses for the 11th time over a period of more than 20 years.

England are sensationally through to the Women's Euro 2022 final after beating Sweden in Tuesday night's semi-finals. | ITV National News.

BBC 5 Live and Sounds will be broadcasting the final for radio listeners, and the Daily Euros podcast is available on BBC Sounds.

Here's when and where the final will be held - and how you can watch. UEFA Women's Euro 2022 final: When and where is it and how can I watch the game?

In two European Championships, Sarina Wiegman has won every match she has managed, and she has the Lionesses into the final on home soil.

And on Sunday, we’ll find out whether the Women’s Euro Whisperer can ensure the title is “coming home” for a team that has been so close yet so far from breaking into the global elite. This is a title-worthy England guided by a coach who has the wherewithal and knowhow to provide what had previously been lacking. Bronze then scored one of her own two minutes into the second half, with a header off a corner kick making its way through traffic and being upheld by VAR, and from there, it was effectively over. “We spoke about the semifinals we have lost previously and it takes a long time to recover from losing a semifinal like that. It would mean everything to reach a final with this England team.” After guiding her native Netherlands to the title on home soil in 2017, Wiegman is a win away from taking another host nation to the promised land.

The Lionesses roared into a first major tournament final since 2009 with a scintillating 4-0 unpicking of Europe's highest-ranked team, Sweden.

Kirby squared to the Manchester United forward and her effort was saved by Lindahl, but Russo latched on to the rebound, was forced wide and sent a neat backheel through the legs of the outwitted Lindahl and in. Against Sweden they had found a way through far earlier and the swagger of the group stage began to course through their veins. Mead swung a corner towards the far post from the left and an unmarked Bronze, atoning for her earlier shakiness, powered a header downwards and it flew between the legs of White before sweeping in beyond Lindahl. A cross from Lauren Hemp evaded Ellen White in the middle but Bronze kept the move alive and fed it back to the unmarked Mead who swivelled and hammered the bouncing ball past Hedvig Lindahl despite the keeper getting a hand to the ball. That indignation spilled on to the pitch, the influential midfielder engaged in a physical and fiery battle with the scorer of England’s extra-time winner against Spain, Stanway. England had not reached a major final since their 6-2 defeat by Germany in Helsinki at Euro 2009 and this team’s terrier-like midfield trio of Fran Kirby, Georgia Stanway and Keira Walsh took half an hour before they worked out how to shrug off some physical and snappy Sweden marking which kept the crowd of 28,624 on edge.

However, player of the tournament went to Ghizlane Chebbak, captain of the runner-ups, Morocco. “You’ve got young girls from all around the UK who are able to go and watch and it hasn’t been limited to London. Since it’s accessible and affordable I think that really helped with the turnout. “We’ve now all related to these individuals in the team and how they brought us together as a country, so we should now be counting down to the next competition, promoting tickets to their matches, ensuring that they are accessible.” It would be fantastic to see the diversity that really represents the young people playing the game.

Popp scored the opening goal for Germany in the 40th but the lead lasted less than five minutes before France equalized. It was recorded as an own goal for Frohms, who had no time to react to the bounce.

Germany will play England in the final of Women's Euro 2022 after a brace from their unlikely star of the tournament.

Instead, it was text-book, a powerful header to crush France’s spirits after Peyraud Magnin had denied Huth and her defence rose to block the follow-up. It only felt right for Popp to have the last say. Diani’s effort from the right was met with the same resistance. Yet somehow, positive Covid tests that might have been catastrophic seem to have a way of working in Germany’s favour. She has won the Champions League, the Frauen-Bundesliga, and an Olympic gold, but this means more. Dabritz had no choice but to use her face to keep out Selma Bacha’s strike, but France rued the follow-up even more, Wendie Renard’s header kept off the line by Frohms’s feet.
