Ten-woman Germany beat France on penalties to reach Euro 2025 semis
Ten-woman Germany reached the Women's Euro 2025 semi-finals on Saturday after prevailing 6-5 in a penalty shootout against France following a gruelling match which finished 1-1 after extra time.
Alice Sombath missed the decisive penalty for France to hand a last-four clash with Spain for Germany, who will take on the world champions in Zurich on Wednesday.
Germany maintained their record of having never lost to France in a major summer tournament after battling back from going a goal and a woman down in the first 15 minutes to win a bruising encounter in Basel.
St Jacob's Park was dominated by fierce German support which flocked over the nearby border with Switzerland and roared their team on even after Kathrin Hendrich was sent off and gave away the penalty from which Grace Geyoro opened the scoring.
Sjoeke Nuesken levelled the scores 10 minutes later and after a long battle to hold off France Sombath's mistake sent the majority of the crowd wild with the decisive spot-kick.
