Germany 2 - 0 Poland A comfortable victory for Germany as their quest to go one better at Euro 2025 starts Author | Ed Stadium | kybunpark Christian Wück’s side controlled almost three-quarters of possession before the interval but were left to rue a series of missed chances as the first half ended goalless.  Brand and Giulia Gwinn both went close, though Poland defended doggedly and their West Ham goalkeeper Kinga Szemik impressed with a string of saves.

Author | Peter Grainger  Stadium | Stade de Tourbillon The first half offered little in the way of clear chances, though Belgium’s Tessa Wullaert came close after turning smartly in the box, only to fire into the side-netting.

Switzerland 1 - 2 Norway Ada Hegerberg scored a penalty, whilst also missing one, as Norway came from behind to defeat hosts Switzerland on the opening night of Euro 2025.

Norway, twice champions of this competition, were unconvincing in the first half and failed to register a single shot on target. But the game turned after the break as Switzerland’s early control slipped away. Hegerberg rose above the defence to head past Livia Peng from a corner, before Julia Stierli’s sliced clearance found her own net just five minutes later.
