France captain Griedge Mbock is set to return for Saturday’s Women’s European Championship quarterfinal against Germany in Basel.

Since 2009, France have lost eight times at this stage of the tournament, barring Euro 2022. The quarter-finals have become a sticking point but this France team have shown resilience, coming from 2-1 down to beat the Netherlands 5-2 in their last group stage fixture on Sunday.

The French Football Federation (FFF) has called for an investigation into hateful comments made online following the national team's exit from the Women's Euros after a penalty shootout loss to Germany in the quarter-finals.

Germany's gritty win over France has given them a template for how they should play for the rest of the tournament, defender Rebecca Knaak told reporters on Tuesday ahead of her side's Women's Euro semi-final against Spain in Zurich.

Aitana Bonmatí scores in extra time, sending Spain to its first Women’s European Championship final with a 1-0 win over Germany.
