The lowdown on UEFA Women's EURO 2025 Day 3️⃣ | OneFootball

The 2025 Women's EURO action is ramping up following goals and drama on day two.

Here are our day two headlines and the day three stories to have an eye on ...

Before we get into today's action, what happened yesterday? ⏪

Italy briefly went to the top of Group B after securing a deserved 1-0 victory over Belgium. The Azzure were the better side throughout and a stunning, curling finish from Arianna Caruso just before half time proved to be a worthy matchwinner.

It was a more one-sided affair in the later Group B kick-off as Spain made a big statement as pre-tournament favourites by thrashing Portugal 5-0. The world champions ended a run of eight games without a clean sheet with their triumph and notched their biggest EUROs win to date.

Who is playing today? 👀

Group C begins with Denmark vs Sweden and some star players are set to feature, including Pernille Harder and Stina Blackstenius. Sweden are one of the biggest European teams historically and head to Switzerland in terrific form, having not lost a game since July 2024.

Germany take on EURO debutants Poland in the second Group C encounter. Christian Wück's side are among the favourites at EURO 2025 after reaching the final in 2022, eventually losing 2-1 against England after extra-time. Poland will make their maiden appearance at the tournament and all eyes will be on Barcelona sharpshooter Ewa Pajor.

It's finally time for a wider audience to see and appreciate the talent of Germany forward Selina Cerci.  Bundesliga top scorer, goal every 97 minutes despite playing for a Hoffenheim side who only managed to finish sixth. Five goals in seven appearances for Germany since this time last year.

Cerci emerged as a potential future superstar as a teenager and was prolific at 21 but injuries set her back - she made just nine league starts in the 2022/23 and 2023/24 seasons - so, now aged 25, this is finally her first international tournament.

She may not start but she will be looking to make an impact no matter what role she plays.

Key storyline 🔑

There will be plenty of intrigue around Poland's major tournament debut. The Eagles had a qualification campaign of two halves, losing all six games in the qualifying group stages before winning four play-off matches.

That improved form in the play-offs kick-started a huge upturn in form as Poland are unbeaten in 11 consecutive matches, winning 10. However, taking on European giants Germany will be a major test for Nina Patalon's outfit in Group C.

Key to the Eagles' hopes at the Women's EUROs will be Ewa Pajor. The Barcelona striker scored an incredible 25 LaLiga goals in just 22 starts last season and has four goals in her last four internationals.
