Spain clinched top spot in Group B as they came from behind to beat Italy 3-1 in their final group game at Euro 2025.

Though Spain condemned Italy to their first defeat of the tournament, the Azzurre also qualified for the round of 16 after Portugal lost 2-1 to Belgium.

Italy put Spain under pressure from the start and came close to an opener as Elena Linari's header ricocheted off the crossbar following a corner.

They did get a 10th-minute opener just 39 seconds after Linari's chance, as Elisabetta Oliviero profited from Mariona Caldentey's loose clearance to power in from close range.

Spain equalised under four minutes later, though, as Athenea del Castillo played a one-two with Alexia Putellas, whose clever backheel teed up the winger's curler.

La Roja kept the pressure on for the rest of the first half but failed to test Laura Giullani, and they eventually got their second goal four minutes after the break when Patri Guijarro's long-range half-volley snuck into the bottom-right corner.

Sofia Cantore cut inside from the left on the hour to bend an effort at goal, but Adriana Nanclares brilliantly reacted to tip that deflected strike away, before Salma Paralluelo fizzed one wide of the far post moments later at the other end.

Annamaria Serturini saw a late chance for an equaliser cleared by the stretching Irene Paredes, before Esther Gonzalez made sure of the victory in stoppage time. Her initial volley was parried back to her by Giullani, and she reacted quickly to bundle it over the line.

Data Debrief: Spain stay perfect

Spain have now won their last seven matches across the World Cup and Euros, but this is the first time they have won all three of their group-stage matches at a major tournament.

Gonzalez ensured that happened, and she has now scored on each of her last four appearances at the Euros, becoming just the third player to do so.

But Putellas more than played her part as well - she is only the second player Opta has on record (since 2013) to both score three goals and assist three goals at a single Euros, along with Beth Mead in 2022.

Spain went into the Euros as major favourites to lift the trophy, and after netting 14 goals and conceding just three in the group stage, they have certainly laid down their marker.
