England and France agreed Thursday to “coordinate” and “cooperate” with each other’s nuclear programs for their own safety and the defense of Europe.

England midfielder Georgia Stanway said they "underperformed" in defeat by France but there is "no crisis" at Euro 2025.

The Lionesses, however, thought they had taken the lead inside 16 minutes at the Stadion Letzigrund in Zurich, only for Alessia Russo’s goal to be disallowed for a marginal offside ruling on Beth Mead. It was a decision England’s head coach described as a “huge surprise” — so what exactly happened, and why didn’t the goal stand?

Georgia Stanway says England are determined to “put things right” in their second 2025 European Championship match against the Netherlands and move on from the France defeat, which she described as “like a bad night out”.

The defending European champions will open their tournament with a daunting match against a highly talented French team.

LONDON — French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday urged Britain to stick close to its neighbors despite its exit from the European Union, saying France and the U.K. will “save Europe” by standing for democracy, law and international order in a dangerous world.
