UEFA U21 EURO Semi-Final: England vs Netherlands – 150-Word Summary
England face the Netherlands in today’s UEFA Under-21 Championship semi-final in Bratislava (17:00, Channel 4). Both sides struggled in the group stage but hit form in the quarters—England beating Spain 3-1, Netherlands edging Portugal 1-0 despite playing with ten men.
Holders England are in a record-equalling 11th semi-final, while the Dutch make their seventh appearance at this stage. England have never lost competitively to the Netherlands, though the teams famously drew 1-1 in the 2007 semi-final before the Dutch won a 13-12 penalty shootout.
Lee Carsley’s side combines tournament experience and attacking talent, including top scorer Harvey Elliott. Netherlands coach Michael Reiziger praised England’s style and expects a close contest. Both teams have players with shared club histories, adding familiarity to the rivalry.
With form peaking at the right time, today’s match promises a high-quality, evenly balanced encounter between two traditional U21 powerhouses.
