WOMEN’S FOOTBALL: Six-time winners Spain are seeking their fourth consecutive title when they face France in Uefa’s Under 19s final in Rzeszow, Poland tomorrow evening. 

Both teams needed extra time to win their semi-final clashes with the Spanish edging out Italy 2-0 before a late penalty from Melinda Mendy sealed France’s narrow 4-3 victory over Portugal. 

Five-time winners France had previously lost in the semi-finals at the last four tournaments.

Tonight’s other fixture sees third against fourth as Leigh visit Leeds.
