England's path to the championship: Who are the Lionesses required to overcome to retain their Euros title?
England's Euro 2025 journey continues with an exciting quarter-final match against Sweden, set to take place on July 17 at Stadion Letzigrund, starting at 8pm. This fixture is a repeat of the Euro 2022 semi-final, where England emerged victorious with a convincing 4-0 win. However, Sweden has shown impressive form in Euro 2025, remaining undefeated so far.
If England manages to secure a win against Sweden, they will face either Norway or Italy in the semi-finals on July 22 at Stade de Geneve, starting at 8pm. England has a strong record against both teams, having defeated Norway 8-0 in the group stage of Euro 2022, and Italy has only won one game in the group stage of Euro 2025.
The potential final for England in Euro 2025 will be on Sunday, July 27, at St. Jakob-Park, starting at 5pm. The opponent for England in the final will be one of Germany, France, Spain, or Switzerland, who are the other teams in the tournament's other half of the draw.
Interestingly, if England faces Spain in the final, it will be a replay of the 2023 World Cup final, which Spain won 1-0. England will be hoping to turn the tables this time around.
Sweden, who topped Group C in Euro 2025, will undoubtedly pose a strong challenge for England. However, with a strong team spirit and a determination to win, England will be aiming to reach the final and potentially bring the trophy home.
As the tournament progresses, the stakes get higher, and the competition gets tougher. England's journey in Euro 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting one, and fans are eagerly waiting to see how it unfolds.
If England progresses and secures a win against Sweden, they might face the champions of the Champions League, as both Norway and Italy have strong ties with some prominent European leagues. Regardless of who they face, England aims to make it to the final of Euro 2025, especially considering their victory against Spain in the 2023 World Cup final was a hard-fought loss.
