England clinched a quarter-final spot at Euro 2025 by thrashing Wales 6-1.
A win was enough for the Lionesses because they had already made up the goal difference when they beat the Netherlands 4-0.
The three points for England and France beating the Netherlands in the other Group D match means Sarina Wiegman's side finished runners-up in the group.
England: When are they playing next?
Finishing second in the group means that England will play Sweden in the quarter-finals.
That game will be played on Thursday with a kick-off time of 8pm BST.
The last eight game will be a repeat of the semi-final from Euro 2022.
On that occasion England won 4-0 but Sweden will be looking for a different outcome and they have been impressive so far in the tournament.
They topped Group C with wins over Denmark, Poland and Germany.
Their victory against Germany was a statement as they thrashed them 4-1.
Sweden have also won the tournament before, the inaugural competition in 1984.
They have not added another major tournament trophy to that one since and they will be eager to do so in 2025.
But England have grown into the tournament. Their opening 2-0 loss to France was disappointing but they then were too much for the Dutch and Wales.
The 4-0 win against the Netherlands was the biggest loss the Dutch have ever had at a women's major tournament.
There was also pressure to follow-up the impressive outing against Wales but they more than matched it with a 6-1 victory.
Sweden present a different challenge with the game set to be a mouthwatering one.
