Group C of the 2025 Women's EURO gets underway with a high-voltage clash between two Nordic selections.

Denmark's starting lineup Andrée Jeglertz has chosen these players for the debut in the competition. Sweden, on the other hand, is one of the favorites to fight for the title: it occupies the sixth place in the world ranking and has reached the semifinals of the last three major tournaments. However, they cannot trust the last precedent and know they will have a very demanding match. Sweden's starting lineup Peter Gerhardsson, who faces his fifth and last major tournament at the helm of the team, chose this formation for the big debut.

Sarina Wiegman hints Lauren James could start against France for England's Euro 2025 opener
ZURICH (AP) — England's bid to retain its Women's European Championship title has been boosted by one of its star players nearing a return to full fitness. Lauren James, who was a major doubt ahead of Sarina Wiegman's squad selection, played her first match since April when she came on as a 63rd minute substitute in Sunday's pre-tournament friendly — a 7-0 thrashing of Jamaica. And Wiegman said James could even start when the Lionesses kick off their title defense against France on Saturday in Zurich. 'Well, I'm not going to give you the lineup, but she played 30 minutes last week so she can play more than that,' Wiegman said with a smile on Friday. 'I think that's saying enough.' Indeed, against Jamaica, James showed little sign of the hamstring injury that had kept her out since the start of April as she provided a sumptuous assist for Alessia Russo just eight minutes after coming on. 'She's in a good place,' Wiegman said. 'She's ready to get more minutes tomorrow.' The defending champion, which also finished runner-up to Spain in the 2023 World Cup, is one of the favorites at Euro 2025 but England faces more difficulties in Switzerland than it did three years ago on home soil. There has been upheaval in the squad in the buildup and this time around the Lionesses won't have the backing of a fervent home crowd. 'It's new territory,' England captain Leah Williamson said. 'We're not necessarily looking at it as a defense, but a new challenge and a new opportunity to do something new. We take any challenge that comes our way.' England also faces Wiegman's home nation, the Netherlands, in Group D as well as tournament debutant — and neighbor — Wales. ___ AP soccer:

Jota death 'extremely difficult to accept'
Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has said it is "going to be extremely difficult to accept" the death of fellow Reds player Diogo Jota. Jota, aged 28, died in a car crash along with his brother Andre Silva, who was 25. Advertisement "I am truly lost for words," said Salah, who joined Liverpool in the summer of 2017. "Until yesterday, I never thought there would be something that would frighten me of going back to Liverpool after the break. Team-mates come and go but not like this. "It's going to be extremely difficult to accept that Diogo won't be there when we go back. "My thoughts are with his wife, his children, and of course his parents who suddenly lost their children. Those close to Diogo and his brother Andre need all the support they can get. They will never be forgotten." The Guardia Civil told BBC Sport both men died at about 00:30 local time on Thursday. Advertisement Jota was on his way back to Liverpool for pre-season and, as doctors had advised him against flying because he had undergone minor surgery, he was making the trip by car and ferry. Doctor Miguel Goncalves, who worked with Jota on his recovery, described him as an "unparalleled professional". He told Portuguese sports newspaper Record: "I started working with him last Saturday and I was with him every day until this Wednesday. I said goodbye to him at dinner time. "He made an extraordinary recovery - he was undoubtedly an unparalleled professional. He strictly followed what I told him, as you could see in the way he was recovering. Advertisement "He was excited, confident in his recovery and enthusiastic about the next season." He married his long-term partner Rute Cardoso, with who he had three children, 11 days before the fatal crash. Liverpool delay pre-season return Several Liverpool players were scheduled to return on Friday from their summer break for an initial round of physical tests at the club's training ground. That was postponed and there will now be a phased return for players on Monday. Liverpool manager Arne Slot's side are set to play their first pre-season match against Preston North End on Sunday, 13 July. Advertisement Former Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher also paid tribute to "one of my closest friends in football". "We bonded over all things, sports, watching any football match we could find - often your brother Andre's game on your iPad," said Kelleher. "I was surprised a lad from Portugal loved sports such as darts, snooker and horse racing so much and some of my best memories were having a laugh watching them with you. "It's going hurt for a long time and I'm going miss you so much but I feel so lucky to have got to know you and have such a good friend." Advertisement A vigil for Jota and Silva will be held at the Chapel of Resurrection in their hometown of Gondomar on Friday. There will be a funeral service at 10:00 on Saturday at the Igreja Matriz de Gondomar. Portugal and Nottingham Forest midfielder Jota Silva laid a wreath outside the chapel, where a private wake for the brothers' relatives took place on Friday afternoon. Locals and fans have been paying tribute to Jota outside the football academy in Gondomar where he played from the age of nine to 17. The academy is named after him and a picture shows Jota wearing both the colours of the Portugal national side and the yellow of his hometown club as a child. Advertisement People have also been paying their respects at Liverpool and former club Wolves, who he left in 2020 to join the Reds. Everton players Beto and Youssef Chermiti, who are both Portuguese, and former Toffees midfielder Ian Snodin laid wreaths in Jota and Silva's memory outside Anfield. Liverpool have set up a book of condolences in the Anfield Road Stand reception area and an online version of the book has also been made available to be "accessible to fans across the globe".
