Group B concludes today and Spain, already qualified for the quarterfinals, wants to finish the job against Italy by winning and securing first place.Before analyzing today, what happened yesterday?

Hot, sunny weather is spreading across most of Europe with more extreme temperatures due next week in parts of Spain.

World Cup champion Spain closed in on the quarterfinals of the Women’s European Championship with a 6-2 win over Belgium on Monday.

That proved to be premature, as Putellas returned to the pitch in April 2023 and was back in the Spain squad for that summer’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. She played seven times and provided an assist, but had not built up enough rhythm to show her best form.

Spain defender Olga Carmona said there is no mention of the word favourites as they prepare to face Belgium in the European Championship on Monday.

Italy go into their clash against Spain at the Euros on Friday with no fear of the Group B leaders, defender Elisabetta Oliviero said, despite her side needing at least a draw to ensure they progress alongside the Spaniards.
