The second quarterfinal is here! When is the game and which players should you watch?

On Wednesday, we learned that Italy is the first semifinalist of Euro 2025. Today, Thursday, we will find out who will be its semifinal opponent. The choices are England, the defending champions from 2022, or Sweden, who won Group C and have conceded only one goal so far. Choosing just one of these two great teams full of stars is really difficult.

Sweden vs. England

  • 17 July
  • 21:00 (Central European time)
  • Zurich

Sweden - Filippa Angeldahl

The scorer of Sweden's first goal in this championship and midfielder for Real Madrid. Although she is still only 28, Angeldahl is one of the most successful players in the Swedish team. She started playing soccer thanks to the father of her best friend and national team teammate Nathalie Björn, who founded a soccer club in Uppsala for them. Together, they won a silver Olympic medal and a bronze medal at the World Cup. Angeldahl is not the only one who will give her all on the field to add gold to this collection.

England - Ella Toone

Two goals and two assists from Tooney make her the best English player of the tournament so far. The scorer of one of the two goals in the final of the last Euro tournament shone with goals against the Netherlands and Wales, and also assisted her best friend Alessia Russo with a goal. She was missing from the starting line-up for the first match against France, but her skills have already shown coach Wiegman that this was a mistake.
