Their first ever major tournament gets way later - 5pm v Netherlands, live BBC1.
It's a proper group of death, with Wales (30th in the world and the lowest ranked team in the competition) drawn against Netherlands (11), France (10) and England (5).
Whatever happens, it's a big step forward for a team that the FAW refused to recognise between 1973 and 1993 and withdrew from qualifying in 2003 because the away trips were deemed to be too expensive!

According to Sky, there are 4000 Welsh fans in Lucerne for today’s game
Great for my great niece's to have players to look up to and realise there is a root if they wish to reach the top.
Come on Cymru.

Fantastic for women and girls sport in Wales. Good luck ladies.
Plant that seed in their heads
Watching the game now, and obviously wanting our girls to get a result, but it’s a hard watch.
Class goal from the Dutch.
Would've been a bit of a boost to get in goalless, but not to be.
That was a bit gutting
Think our right hand side has got tired collectively having to operate on the sunny side of the pitch because the Dutch were getting more space down that side - really good finish mind and all we’ve done really is try and hang on for a 0-0.
The gulf in class exposed. Need to really dig in now.
Quite a change then, and good to see. Did so well first half but it’s an awful group so not unexpected to have a few hidings here.
Commentator just said "Drinking not allowed in stadium by US IN ENGLAND" when commentating on a Wales game!
Pretty predictable outcome, but at least the Welsh ladies are the party.
