The second match on Thursday, July 3 in the 2025 UEFA Women’s European Championship sees a couple of neighboring nations sharing the pitch at Stadion Wankdorf in Bern, Switzerland where Portugal takes on Spain.

Belgium and Italy also met in the 2022 EURO group stage. The Red Flames won that match 1-0 thanks to Tine De Caigny's second-half goal. Tessa Wullaert, Belgium's Women's all-time leading scorer, starts this evening and will be hoping to recreate some of this magic from the 2022 EURO group stages.

Portugal and Spain players observed a period of silence before their Women's European Championship opening game Thursday in memory of Portugal and Liverpool forward Diogo Jota.
