Women’s Nations League: Germany qualifies for semifinals as England hits six against Portugal
Germany joined already qualified France in the Women’s Nations League semifinals as England knocked Portugal for six at Wembley on Friday.
Euro 2022 champion England shrugged off the shock international retirement of Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Mary Earps this week to sweep aside Portugal 6-0 and set up a tantalising decider for Sarina Wiegman’s side in the final group game against world champion Spain in Barcelona on Tuesday.
Spain eased past Belgium 5-1 and top its group by two points from England with only the winner of the four top-tier mini-leagues advancing to the semifinals in October.
Germany booked its ticket to the two-legged semis with a 4-0 rout of the Netherlands. That left it three points clear of the Dutch.
In the event of the two sides ending up level after Tuesday’s closing games the Germans will go through on the basis of their head-to-head results - they drew when they met in the opening game in February.
