Keira Walsh has become only the 15th England Women's player to reach a century of senior appearances, achieving this milestone at Wembley during a World Cup qualifier against Spain.

Vivien Endemann has 17 senior international caps for Germany, scoring three times, and was part of the squad that won bronze at the 2024 Olympic Games.

FC Barcelona's women's team achieved a resounding 6-0 victory against Badalona Women, making it 16 wins in a row and just one defeat in 25 games, inching closer to the Liga F title.

The breakthrough came around the 30th minute, when Stokic finished off a well-worked move, scoring the 350th Serie A goal for the Milan Women.

Record nine-time Women's Asian Cup champions China face host nation Australia in the first semifinal of the 2026 tournament. China are also this edition's defending champions, having won the last title in India in 2022.

A mistake led to James opening the scoring against her former club in a frantic first half which saw both sides have plenty of chances.

Chelsea have not gone trophyless since 2018-19 and will be determined to ensure this season does not end that run. However, their position has become increasingly precarious.

FCB Women demonstrated spirit in particular, since the She-Wolves were 1-0 up at half-time. The second half was a different story as Jovana Damnjanović (54', 56') turned the game around with a quickfire double, before Georgia Stanway (70') and Klara Bühl (80') wrapped up the win in the top-of-the-table clash.
