Ouahabi helps Spain seal top spot in Group B at Euro 2025
City defender Leila Ouahabi played the full 90 minutes to help ensure Spain topped their Group B campaign at Euro 2025 thanks to a 3-1 win over Italy in Berne. In what proved one of the most absorbing and eventful games of the Switzerland showpiece to date, Italy were the first to threaten, mounting a series of early raids before captain Elena Linari saw a powerful eighth minute header cannon back off the Spanish crossbar. Advertisement But two minutes later the Italians did make the breakthrough. Spain failed to clear a low cross into the area and Italian winger Elisabetta Oliviero was first to react, slamming a low left-footed shot past Adriana Nanclares. In what was an end-to-end opening spell, the world champions then showed their class and composure by responding in thrilling style to draw level on 13 minutes. Athenea del Castillo executed a superb run through a sea of Italian defenders before playing a one-two with Alexia Putellas who then played an instant deft backheel to set up del Castillo. The Real Madrid star made the most of the opening, firing home first time from the edge of the box in sumptuous style for one of the standout goals of the tournament to date. Advertisement In a high quality and compelling affair, Spain dominated possession and territory but found Italy the toughest of opponents. And the Spanish were then fortunate to escape conceding a penalty three minutes from half-time. A low cross from Sofia Castore was misjudged by Irene Paredes who could only clear the ball with her hand when attempting to head clear in the centre of the box only for a VAR check to rule Italy were fractionally offside in the build-up. However, the world champions provided another reminder of their lethal quality four minutes after the restart when they took the lead through Patricia Guijarro after a mazy run from Athenea del Castillo had caused panic in the Italian ranks. Advertisement Italy kept pushing as they sought a leveller, but Spain sealed the deal - and with it top spot - two minutes into stoppage time. Substitute Esther Gonzalez converted from close range shortly after coming on as she latched onto another sumptuous Putellas assist to take her tally at Euro 2025 to four goals. It took Spain's number of goals at the tournament to 14, the joint highest tally by a side in the group stages along with England at Euro 2022. Spain's reward for finishing top is a quarter-final assignment with Switzerland in Berne, runners-up Italy will play Norway in Geneva.

(Gabriel Monnet/Keystone via AP) MADRID (AP) — Alexia Putellas doesn't have fond memories of the last Women's European Championship, when she tore a knee ligament on the eve of the tournament in England three years ago. Things are different now as Spain prepares for its campaign at Euro 2025 in Switzerland, with Putellas saying she's better than ever and ready to try to lead Spain to its first title in the competition. Advertisement 'I'm not going to lie, it's a competition that I had in my sights after the injury I suffered just before the start of the last Euro,' she said. 'I've been preparing for this moment for a long time and I want to enjoy it.' The two-time world player of the year was coming off one of her most impressive seasons when she injured her left knee during a practice session just days before Spain's opener at Euro 2022. It kept her out of action for nearly a year and dealt a blow to Spain's chances in the tournament, where it was ousted by England in the quarterfinals. Putellas says she has improved a lot since then, even though other Spanish players such as Aitana Bonmatí — a two-time Ballon d'Or winner herself — have emerged as top stars. 'Without a doubt I'm a better Alexia,' she said. 'I know myself a lot better, I know my qualities, I know what I have been working on. In the end, all the suffering makes you evolve as a person and as an athlete. I've learned to manage the bad moments a lot better, as well as the good moments.' Advertisement Putellas has had another outstanding season and is again among the favorites for the world player of the year award. She thrived as Barcelona won the domestic treble and reached another Champions League final. 'The individual award is not something too important for me,' the 31-year-old Putellas said. 'But it would show that you've done something good and, from where I'm coming from — from the lowest of the lowest after the injury — it would give some value to the effort that it was put into the recovery. We'll see, but the most important thing is to win the Euro.' Bonmatí won the last two world player of the year awards, and she is now the one enduring an ordeal as after falling ill with viral meningitis just a few days before Spain traveled to Switzerland for the tournament. Bonmatí was released from the hospital on Sunday to rejoin the national squad, but it still wasn't clear how much she would participate. Spain will open its tournament Thursday against Portugal. It will also face Belgium and Italy in Group B. The nation's best result in the European tournament was a semifinals appearance in 1997. Advertisement Spain established itself as one of the powerhouses in women's soccer by winning the World Cup in 2023 and the inaugural Women's Nations League in 2024. It then just missed out on a medal at the Paris Olympics, when it lost to Brazil in the semifinals and to Germany in the bronze-medal match. 'It's never easy to win a Euro," Putellas said. "We need to have maximum respect toward the other nations. There are great teams participating. But we have a lot of faith in our team, and if we give our best we will be that much closer to winning.' ___ AP soccer:
