KIFI

ROTHERHAM, England (AP) — Griedge Mbock Bathy headed France into the quarterfinals at the Women’s European Championship in a 2-1 victory over Belgium. Janice Cayman had brought Belgium back into the game by canceling out Kadidiatou Diani’s early headed goal before Mbock Bathy nodded in just before halftime. France clinched the top spot in Group D with a game to spare after back-to-back victories. The second quarterfinal qualification place is still up for grabs with Iceland on two points in second place after drawing 1-1 with Italy, which is on one point with Belgium.
