It remains all square in Women’s Euro 2022 Group C as the Netherlands drew 1-1 with Sweden and Portugal drew 2-2 with Switzerland.
The heavyweight clash between the defending champions and Sweden produced no victor, with the pair now needing to better each other’s results against Portugal and Switzerland in order to top the group.
Both sides are genuine contenders to win the tournament, and the contest between them was as close on the grass as it had appeared on paper.
Sweden were more convincing in the first half and deserved their lead, courtesy of Jonna Andersson in the 35th minute.
However, the Dutch improved after the break and Jill Roord fired them level shortly after the restart.
Neither side was able to snatch a winner despite having chances to do so and the draw was ultimately a fair result — though it did neither side any favours after Portugal and Switzerland’s own stalemate presented an opportunity to take control of the group.
The minnows’ clash was decidedly more dramatic, with Switzerland racing into an early lead but failing to hold out.
The Swiss were two goals up after just five minutes, with Rahel Kiwic adding to Coumba Sow’s opener.
Portugal may have feared the worst, but rather than panic, they rallied and kept themselves in the contest before eventually pulling a goal back shortly before the hour mark through Diana Gomes.
Jessica Silva restored parity with 25 minutes of normal time remaining, but Portugal were unable to channel their momentum into a winner and Switzerland failed to re-take the lead.
Portugal’s comeback was the first time any side had gone two goals down and not lost in Women’s Euros history.
