The Euro 2025 quarterfinals are here. Eight nations still have hopes of lifting the trophy, but pre-tournament favorites Spain remain the team to beat. Can anyone stop them?
On this special quarter-final preview edition of Full Time Euros, host Jillian Sakovits is joined by Charlotte Harpur, Laia Cervello and Michael Cox to break down the key matchups, narratives and what's at stake as the knockout rounds begin in Switzerland.
Why is this quarter-final such a huge opportunity for Norway and Italy? Will Sarina Wiegman adjust her tactics take on an in-form Sweden team? Do the hosts, Switzerland, have the capability to overcome Spain? And, is France emerging as the next biggest contender if they can get past an ailing German side?
