World Football meets identical twins Karen and Sara Holmgaard, who are both in Denmark’s squad for Euro 2025.

They tell John Bennett that going to Switzerland as a pair is special and that it’s a dream to play together, after Karen missed the 2023 World Cup through injury.

They also discuss the influence Pernille Harder has on Denmark’s squad and their hopes for the tournament.

The twins spent last season playing for Everton and discuss how they feel, following the announcement Sara is leaving the club for Real Madrid.
