France seized an early advantage in their Women’s Euro 2025 quarter-final against Germany in Basel after defender Kathrin Hendrich was dismissed in the 21st minute for pulling the hair of France captain Griedge Mbock inside the penalty area. Midfielder Grace Geyoro converted the resulting spot-kick, giving France a 1–0 lead and leaving Germany to play the remainder of the match with ten players at St. Jakob-Park. The incident is the main flash-point of the first half as France press for a semifinal berth.
