History has taken a poetic turn at UEFA Women’s Euro 2025, with the final now officially mirroring the men’s tournament just one year prior — it’s Spain vs England for the title.

On Wednesday night, Spain’s women booked their first-ever spot in a European Championship final after edging past Germany 1–0 in a tense, tactical semi-final in Zurich. The game was goalless through 90 minutes despite chances on both ends, but it was Aitana Bonmatí — the reigning Ballon d'Or Féminin winner and FC Barcelona star — who broke the deadlock in extra time with a moment of brilliance.

Spain dominated the opening half with trademark control and intricate passing, while Germany grew into the match after the break and created several promising chances. Yet neither side could find the net in regulation, setting up a dramatic finish in added time.

Final Showdown Set for Basel

The final will take place on Sunday, July 27, in Basel, with kick-off scheduled for 19:00 Kyiv time (18:00 CET). All eyes will be on whether England — the reigning champions — can defend their crown, or if Spain can complete their fairy-tale run by lifting their first-ever Women's Euro trophy.
