12:10pm, 14 July 2025【Football】

In the last round of the group stage of the 2025 European Women's Football Championship, the French Women's Football Team became the focus with a soul-stirring victory. This match at the Basel St. Jacobs Park Stadium not only allowed France to advance to the quarterfinals with the first place in the group, but also made the Dutch women's football team leave the court in disgrace. During the game, the French team scored three goals in six minutes, completing an incredible counterattack, completely sending the Netherlands out of the European Championship stage. The Netherlands started strongly, and France took every step forward at the beginning of the game, and the Netherlands showed a strong desire to win. They threatened the French team's goal twice in the first two minutes, and forced French defender Bassa to score an own goal through a quick counterattack in the 40th minute, and the score became 2-1. At this moment, the Dutch team seemed to see hope for advancement.

However, the French team was not panicked. Faced with the Dutch team's high-pressure offense, French head coach Bonnard quickly adjusted his tactics. In the first half, they adopted a relatively conservative defensive strategy to avoid further conceding goals while waiting for opportunities after the Dutch physical fitness declined. France rose in the second half, and three goals in six minutes were completely reversed

The French team seemed to have changed a team in the second half. They quickly speed up, strengthen midfield compression, and use the speed of the wing to create threats frequently. And the key figure in all this is Delfina Cascarino. She completed an incredible solo performance in just six minutes.

In the 64th minute, Cascarino completed a steal and ran long distance, accurately assisted Catoto to score, tied the score to 2-2. Just two minutes later, Cascarino completed a wonderful personal breakthrough at the front of the penalty area, and shot straight into the dead corner with his right foot, and the score became 3-2. In the 66th minute, she once again seized the loophole in the Netherlands' defense and scored a goal, expanding the score to 4-2. The French team completely controlled the situation of the game. In the final stage of the game, French defender Carl Shavi made a penalty in a quick counterattack and took the penalty himself to freeze the score at 5-2. All the efforts of the Dutch team were shattered at this moment.

France's stars shine, the Netherlands' regrets and reflections

Cascarino is undoubtedly the biggest hero of this game. Her outbreak at a critical moment not only saved the French team, but also completely collapsed the Dutch team's defense. In addition, Catoto and Toletti's performance is also commendable, and they set the victory for the French team with goals and assists respectively.

And the Dutch team's performance is equally respectable. They showed strong tactical execution and teamwork for most of the game, but failed to withstand France's counterattack at critical moments, which is the main reason why they stopped in the group stage.

The pattern of the group stage and the future prospects of the French team

With this victory, the French team won all three games to tie the group first and will face the German team in the quarterfinals. The Dutch team regretfully ended the journey of this European Championship. The promotion of the French team not only means that they are one step closer to the championship, but also demonstrates the team's resilience and strong psychological qualities in adversity. Looking ahead to the next game, the French team will face more severe challenges - the German team's steady defense and sharp offense will be a difficult time for the French team to move towards the semi-finals.

The enlightenment and global significance of European women's football team

This game is not only a contest between France and the Netherlands, but also a microcosm of the continuous improvement of European women's football team's level. From the players' personal abilities to the team's tactical execution, this game demonstrates the high quality and competitiveness of the European women's football team.

At the same time, this game also conveys a message to the world: women's football team can also bring shocking games. This is not only a victory in competitive sports, but also a wonderful display of women's power on the international stage.

Summary

The French women's football team proved themselves to be a strong contender for the European Championship with a reversal victory, while the Dutch team ended their journey in regret.
