Live coverage from a blockbuster battle in Group D as 1988 champions the Netherlands face two-time winners France in Leipzig.

These heavyweight nations are familiar foes, having competed in the same group in qualifying for this tournament, with France winning home and away against their Dutch rivals, including a comprehensive 4-0 win in Paris as the hosts scored three goals in the opening 21 minutes.

France have reached the final of three of their last four major tournaments, although the exception was a last-16 exit to Switzerland at Euro 2020, while the Netherlands’ sole triumph at the European Championship came the last time it was hosted in Germany 36 years ago.

Gary Lineker presents, with commentary by Steve Wilson and Jermaine Jenas.
