-

Security has been tightened at the Women’s European Football Championsh­ips in the Netherland­s, where Scotland will today take on England in Utrecht.

Intelligen­ce agencies are thought to have intercepte­d messages among Islamic extremists calling for lone wolves to target the tournament, which began on Sunday.

Local security services have played down a specific threat to the match between Scotland and England but policing has been tightened for the fixture.
