England vs Sweden LIVE: Lionesses result and final score from Euro 2025 qualifier at Wembley

The referee blows the whistle for half-time after a sustained spell of England possession.

A calm end to a half that threatened, at one point, to be difficult. England go down the tunnel 1-0 up thanks to a well-worked goal from Alessia Russo.

46 mins: The game is petering out a little bit as half-time approaches. England are keeping possession pretty confidently.

Stanway skips past a couple of challenges and wins a free-kick.

44 mins: England are wasteful in possession and Sweden come again, with Blackstenius doing well to bring it down on halfway. Walsh wins the ball well though, and Hemp sets off down the left wing. England work it once more and Lauren James tries clipping a ball over the defence, but it runs out of play despite the efforts of Russo.

We’ll have three minutes of added time.

42 mins: Good defending from Sweden as Russo brings it down from the throw-in and lays it off to Grace Clinton, whose effort is blocked.

41 mins: England have some brief respite and a bit of possession, but Stanway’s pass is a little wayward.

38 mins: Lauren James has popped up on the right again and she does well to hold it up, but England lose it.

The away side work it well once more down the right, with Lundkvist and Angeldahl exchanging passes before Rytting Kaneryd hits a tempting cross across goal, but there’s nobody there to convert!

35 mins: More defending needed from England. Sweden break with Rolfo carrying, and she lays it off to Asllani, whose shot is deflected behind.

England manage to clear the corner but Sweden come again. Rolfo is played down the left on the overlap, and her fizzed ball in is cleared for another corner.

34 mins: Lucy Bronze is caught as she wins the header but she’s okay.

Sweden work a chance on the edge of the box and Angeldahl strikes an effort wide.

33 mins: Sweden are almost in as Blackstenius plays a through ball to Olme, but Bronze does well to intercept.

31 mins: Earps does well to collect a potentially difficult long ball in. Sweden are starting to put the pressure on a little more, but England do look quite comfortable.
