Jackie Groenen of the Netherlands, who was a holder against Sweden (1-1 at Euro), tested positive for Covid-19. This was after several other cases were reported in England. The Manchester United player will remain in isolation confinement for the "next few days" and can rejoin the Netherlands squad after testing negative.

Since Wednesday's start of the women’s tournament in England, there have been several positive cases. Lotte Wubben–Moy, Arsenal's English defender in the match against Austria (1-0), was therefore forced to temporarily leave "Lionesses" (Lionesses), after being affected by a positive testing during preparations. Ellen White had returned on time.
It will also be without Valentina Cernoia, the midfielder for Italy's match against France at 9:00 p.m.
Pre-match testing is not required during the Women's Euro. If a team is affected by multiple cases of Covid-19, they must place those involved in solitary confinement. As long as there are at least 13 players available, including a goalkeeper (no postponement allowed), no exceptions to the rule.
