JULY 7 IS JUDGMENT DAY: Women's EURO 2025 Set to Explode in Group B

Two matches. One fate-altering evening.


 As UEFA Women’s EURO 2025 barrels into its second group stage round, all eyes are locked on Group B. The gloves are off. The storylines are tangled. The pressure is suffocating. This is the day that legends rise or hopes disintegrate.

Spain vs Belgium: A Tidal Wave vs A Wall of Hope

Thun – 17:00 CET

Spain Are Dancing - Can Anyone Cut the Music?

Spain look untouchable. They aren’t just winning, they’re dictating, dissecting, dismantling. Their 5–0 blitz against Portugal was a footballing masterclass: high press, relentless width, precision passes, and surgical finishing.

But now comes a different challenge: Can they sustain perfection under pressure?

They’re likely to rotate. Fatigue is a factor. But even with changes, the system remains ruthless. Bonmatí runs the orchestra. Putellas pulls the strings. And in the shadows, Mariona Caldentey slips between the lines, quietly breaking entire defensive shapes. She’s the pulse of the team, invisible until it’s too late.

Belgium: Outgunned or Just Underdogs?

Belgium need a miracle. After falling to Italy and carrying the scars of a recent 5–1 beating by Spain, they arrive in Thun wounded but not surrendered. Expect a back five. Expect bodies behind the ball. Expect every ounce of resistance they can summon.

But… will that be enough?
Or are they about to be suffocated again by the best team in the world?

What Could Flip This Match?

If Belgium break Spain’s press early and hit them in transition, maybe just maybe, they can rattle them. But if Mariona starts finding pockets between the midfield and defence, it’s lights out.

Prediction: Spain win. Comfortably. And with style. Again.

Portugal vs Italy: Beauty vs Brutality

Geneva – 20:00 CET

Portugal Have Possession. But Do They Have a Point?

Portugal want to play. They want to pass, to probe, to orchestrate. But football isn’t a recital, it’s a fight. Against Spain, they brought their instruments to a gunfight and got blown off the pitch.

Now it’s time to ask the real question:
Does this team have a killer instinct? Or are they just decorative?

They’ll have the ball. But unless they add bite to their build-up, Italy will chew them up and spit them out on the counter.

Italy: Ice-Cold, Iron-Clad, Impossible to Break

Italy don’t need the ball. They want your mistakes. They want your frustration. This team is a machine, no wasted movement, no flashy tricks, just rigid lines and devastating counters.

Arianna Caruso is the finisher, but it’s the collective that wears you down. They’ll wait. They’ll watch. And they’ll strike when Portugal least expects it.

What Could Turn the Tide?

If Portugal scores first, Italy will be forced to chase something they hate doing. But if Italy open the scoring, expect the air to go out of the game instantly.

Prediction: Italy edge it 2–1. Minimal chances. Maximum efficiency.

What’s at Stake?

  • If Spain wins, they’re through. And if they win big again, they’ll stamp their name as tournament favourites.

  • If Italy win, they’re all but into the quarterfinals and suddenly a dark horse for the semis.

  • If Portugal lose, they’re teetering on the edge of elimination.

  • If Belgium don’t survive, their tournament ends before it ever truly began.

The Real Questions Everyone Should Be Asking

  • Can Spain maintain this level, or are they peaking too early?

  • Is Portugal’s style of play too passive for elite football?

  • Is Italy’s calculated cold-bloodedness enough to go deep in this tournament?

  • Will Belgium finally swing back, or fade quietly out?

One Night, Four Fates, Infinite Possibilities

July 7 is more than a matchday. It’s a referendum. A reckoning.

By the end of these 180 minutes, we won’t just know who’s top of Group B 

We’ll know who’s really made for the pressure of tournament football.

So buckle in. Hold your breath. This is the night where tactics clash, emotions boil over, and history starts to write itself.

Because at EURO 2025, every pass, every tackle, every moment... means everything.

Let the chaos begin.
