dominant performance of Spain

Spain's dominance continued when Mariona Caldentey met in the 61st minute after a corner kick, followed by a precise shot by Claudia Pina in the Kreuzeck in the 81st minute.

Putellas, who prepared intensively for this competition, previously reflected on her injury, which she had suffered before the last European Championship 2022. She injured herself on the cruciate ligament and therefore could not play what a significant influence on Spain's tedious way to the quarter -finals against England.

Nevertheless, the win of the EM remains its primary goal.

European Championship 2025 in focus

UEFA expects over 500 million TV viewers, an increase of 33% compared to 2022. The prize money is a total of 41 million euros, of which 5.1 million euros will flow to the tournament winner. This is an increase of 156% compared to the last EM.

With a net loss of 20 to 25 million euros, UEFA expects to make football the most popular women's sport in Switzerland. The current proportion of football players in Switzerland is only 1.1% of the female population, which underlines the need for further funding and support.

The emotional return of Aitana Bonmatí, which has recovered from an illness, complements the team, which meets Portugal, Belgium and Italy in the group phase. Putellas and her team are determined to build on their success with this strong team performance and possibly lead the EM 2025 to their first title.
