England 0-0 Sweden: Lionesses secure automatic qualification to Euro 2025 as defending champions keep hosts at bay to grind out goalless draw

England have qualified for next year's European Championship after being held to a goalless draw by Sweden in Gothenburg on Tuesday evening. 

Sarina Wiegman's side had previously beaten Republic of Ireland on Friday to set up their second-place finish in League A's Group 3, with only a Swedish victory threatening their automatic qualification. 

England were given a second-half scare by a renewed Swedish force as head coach Peter Gerhardsson rang the changes, but the defending champions clung on to avoid a lengthy play-off route ahead of next year's finals in Switzerland.
