🚨 Heavy defeat in Zurich, Sweden too strong for shaky Germany women
The dream of winning the group is over. At Letzigrund Stadium in Zurich, the DFB women lost clearly to Sweden with a score of 1:4 and finish Group C as runners-up. Strong for the future: With retirement planning from ERGO, tailored to the needs of women. At first, everything actually looked good. Germany started with pressure, created several chances right from the beginning, and took the lead as a result. Advertisement But after the 1:0 by Jule Brand (7th minute), the game turned. The Blågult took control and went ahead through Stina Blackstenius (12th minute) and Smilla Holmberg (25th minute). Things got even worse for the Wück team after that. Carlotta Wamser cleared the ball off the line with her hand in the 31st minute, caused a penalty, and had to leave the field with a red card. Fridolina Rolfö took responsibility and increased the score to 3:1 from the Swedish perspective. After that, the DFB team nervously made it to the locker room. Again and again, especially the newly formed defense together with goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger made some hair-raising mistakes. No turnaround in the second half The second half also failed to bring a real turnaround. Although the German women stabilized, there was no real sign of a fightback. The Swedish team, meanwhile, managed their lead and repeatedly launched skillful attacks – as they did in the 80th minute. Advertisement After a passing sequence around the German penalty area, Lina Hurtig only had to tap the ball in and scored to make it 4:1 for coach Peter Gerhardsson's team. That's how it would end.

‘We didn't help ourselves' – Wiegman frustrated with sloppy England
England head coach Sarina Wiegman said that her side's 2-1 defeat to France at UEFA Women's EURO 2025 was of their own making. The Lionesses' title defence got off to a terrible start in Zürich as they were outclassed by a well-drilled French outfit. Advertisement Alessia Russo had an early goal disallowed before France got on top and netted twice through Marie-Antoinette Katoto and Sandy Baltimore. Keira Walsh pulled a goal back three minutes from time but it was too little, too late. When speaking to the media in the post-match press conference, England boss Wiegman did not shy away from the fact that the Lionesses caused themselves problems. 'Of course, I'm very disappointed,' Wiegman said. 'We started well, created a chance in the first minute, scored a pretty good goal that was disallowed. 'After that, we created our own problems a bit by playing short passes all of the time where they could full press. We wanted to skip players and get in-behind them to receive the ball but we were a bit sloppy. We lost balls in those moments and we didn't help ourselves; it was hard to get out of that situation. Advertisement 'They scored two goals; one where we were sloppy and we could have created a huge chance but they won it and they scored a goal. That was very unfortunate and of course, we want to do that better. 'Second half, we did it more and tried to get in-behind but we didn't create that many chances. When we get them, we have to shoot on goal and get them on target. After we scored from a corner, we tried to force a goal and we were close but not close enough. 'Overall, we want to do better and what I've just talked through are the big learnings. We need to move on.' England's performance declined off the back of Russo's disallowed goal but Wiegman did not believe that this moment was the reason that the game changed. Advertisement She said 'I'm not sure it was [because of] the disallowed goal. As I've explained, when we built, we chose short passes. They were aiming for that and they were pretty good in midfield, so we had to go around and at times on the right side, we had moments where we had overloads where we could find that. 'We have to skip players and not play the short passes but when you receive them, you have to be tighter on the ball and be quicker to play them out of that press that develops. 'We caused our own problems knowing that when you don't do these things right against France, they're a very good team, so they can harm you.' England take on The Netherlands in a 'must-win' fixture on Matchday 2. Wiegman says that the Lionesses will face a very different challenge. Advertisement She said 'It's a different team. They're pretty dynamic and of course, I know them pretty well. They want to play in the pockets and try to change the shape all of the time. They definitely want to have the ball and play but they also want to press high in moments. We will get prepared for that.' England's next UEFA Women's EURO 2025 fixture against The Netherlands kicks-off at 5pm on Wednesday evening.

Are Strong Financial Prospects The Force That Is Driving The Momentum In Flughafen Zürich AG's VTX:FHZN) Stock?
Flughafen Zürich's (VTX:FHZN) stock is up by a considerable 11% over the past three months. Since the market usually pay for a company's long-term fundamentals, we decided to study the company's key performance indicators to see if they could be influencing the market. Specifically, we decided to study Flughafen Zürich's ROE in this article. Return on equity or ROE is an important factor to be considered by a shareholder because it tells them how effectively their capital is being reinvested. In other words, it is a profitability ratio which measures the rate of return on the capital provided by the company's shareholders. This technology could replace computers: discover the 20 stocks are working to make quantum computing a reality. ROE can be calculated by using the formula: Return on Equity = Net Profit (from continuing operations) ÷ Shareholders' Equity So, based on the above formula, the ROE for Flughafen Zürich is: 11% = CHF327m ÷ CHF3.0b (Based on the trailing twelve months to December 2024). The 'return' refers to a company's earnings over the last year. Another way to think of that is that for every CHF1 worth of equity, the company was able to earn CHF0.11 in profit. View our latest analysis for Flughafen Zürich Thus far, we have learned that ROE measures how efficiently a company is generating its profits. Based on how much of its profits the company chooses to reinvest or "retain", we are then able to evaluate a company's future ability to generate profits. Assuming all else is equal, companies that have both a higher return on equity and higher profit retention are usually the ones that have a higher growth rate when compared to companies that don't have the same features. To begin with, Flughafen Zürich seems to have a respectable ROE. Even when compared to the industry average of 11% the company's ROE looks quite decent. This probably goes some way in explaining Flughafen Zürich's significant 32% net income growth over the past five years amongst other factors. However, there could also be other drivers behind this growth. For instance, the company has a low payout ratio or is being managed efficiently. As a next step, we compared Flughafen Zürich's net income growth with the industry and found that the company has a similar growth figure when compared with the industry average growth rate of 27% in the same period. Earnings growth is a huge factor in stock valuation. It's important for an investor to know whether the market has priced in the company's expected earnings growth (or decline). By doing so, they will have an idea if the stock is headed into clear blue waters or if swampy waters await. Is Flughafen Zürich fairly valued compared to other companies? These 3 valuation measures might help you decide. Flughafen Zürich has a three-year median payout ratio of 39% (where it is retaining 61% of its income) which is not too low or not too high. This suggests that its dividend is well covered, and given the high growth we discussed above, it looks like Flughafen Zürich is reinvesting its earnings efficiently. Moreover, Flughafen Zürich is determined to keep sharing its profits with shareholders which we infer from its long history of paying a dividend for at least ten years. Looking at the current analyst consensus data, we can see that the company's future payout ratio is expected to rise to 75% over the next three years. However, the company's ROE is not expected to change by much despite the higher expected payout ratio. Overall, we are quite pleased with Flughafen Zürich's performance. In particular, it's great to see that the company is investing heavily into its business and along with a high rate of return, that has resulted in a sizeable growth in its earnings. Having said that, the company's earnings growth is expected to slow down, as forecasted in the current analyst estimates.
