Lucy Bronze issues warning over Jess Carter abuse - England defender Carter revealed on Sunday she had been the target of online racism at Euro 2025.

Captain Kosovare Asllani puts Sweden ahead against England inside two minutes after an error from Jess Carter in their Euro 2025 quarter-final clash at Stadion Letzigrund in Zurich.

Carter came off in the 70th minute as the Lionesses looked to claw their way back into the tie, so she was not on the field when the time came for the penalty shootout. Without any capacity to change the game, she likened the experience of watching the action unfold from the bench to being a supporter.
