The Womens Euro 2025 has delivered electric moments and surprise performances, reshaping expectations as Spain maintain their dominant position. Yet teams like France, England, and Sweden follow closely behind, showcasing depth and potential. Here’s a comprehensive breakdown—from 10th to 1st—of how each nation has fared in terms of performance, standout players, and tactical strengths.
10. Netherlands
- Wins: 1 | Losses: 2 | Goals Conceded: 9 in last two matches
The Netherlands began brightly, celebrating Vivianne Miedema’s 100th goal, but results soon turned poor. Conceding nine goals in two defeats to England and France exposed major defensive flaws. Off-field tensions—such as a press-room clash and coach Andries Jonker’s woes—have unsettled the squad. With Miedema benched in the final group game and leadership issues, the Dutch look far from their peak.
9. Finland
- Wins: 1 | Lose: 1 | Draws: 1 |Goals Scored: 3
- Knocked Out: After injury-time equalizer vs Switzerland
Finland’s campaign was a feel-good story—marking their first win at a Womens Euro in 16 years against Iceland. They pushed Norway hard in a narrow loss and were heartbreakingly eliminated by Switzerland via an injury-time equaliser. Though out, Finland showed grit and promise, earning respect and laying groundwork for future tournaments.
8. Italy
- Wins: 1 | Draws: 1 | Lose: 1
- Goals Scored: 4 | Notable Goal: Arianna Caruso wonder strike vs Belgium
Italy returned to the knockouts for the first time since 2013—an achievement reflecting Andrea Soncin’s improving squad. A gritty win over Belgium was followed by a frustrating draw with Portugal, but they bounced back with a strong performance against Spain. Their upcoming match with Norway could be pivotal—Italy are quietly gaining confidence.
7. Switzerland
- Wins: 1 | Lose: 1 | Draws: 1 |Goals Scored: 4
- Progress: First-ever knockout qualification
- Standout Player: Géraldine Reuteler (3 Player of the Match awards)
Host nation Switzerland exceeded expectations, advancing to their first Euro quarter-final. Guided by Pia Sundhage, a young squad embraced the moment with Lia Wälti leading from midfield and Géraldine Reuteler earning three Player of the Match nods. Their late equaliser against Finland sent fans wild and athletic, youthful confidence is their driving force.

6. Germany
- Wins: 2 | Lose: 1 | Goals Scored: 5
Germany stormed through their first two games in Womens Euro 2025, but a shocking 4–1 loss to Sweden in Zurich halted their momentum. Injuries to captain Giulia Gwinn and a red card for Carlotta Wamser have severely disrupted stability in defence. Head coach Christian Wück now faces a tough challenge and must reinforce the backline if Germany are to make a deeper run in Womens Euro 2025.
5. Norway
- Wins: 3 | Lose: 0 | Draws: 0 | Goals Scored: 8
- Key Duo: Ada Hegerberg and Caroline Graham Hansen
Norway ended the group stage with a perfect record but struggled for cohesion. Expectations were higher for Gemma Grainger’s team, yet it was veterans like Ada Hegerberg and Caroline Graham Hansen who carried them. Their quarter-final tie with Italy will be a test of whether experience can override tactical imbalance.
4. England
- Wins: 2 | Lose: 1 | Goals Scored: 11
- Star Performers: Lauren James, Ella Toone
England recovered well from an opening defeat by France, shifting their tactics to score 10 goals across matches against the Netherlands and Wales. Lauren James has emerged as a major talent while Ella Toone is in career-best form. However, defensive vulnerability remains a concern that could cost them against stronger opposition.
3. France
- Wins: 3 | Lose: 0 | Draws: 0 |Goals Scored: 11
France have impressed in Group D, notably outplaying England and mounting a strong comeback against the Netherlands. Their wide play—anchored by Sandy Baltimore and Delphine Cascarino—has been exceptional. Striker Marie-Antoinette Katoto seems to have shaken off her Euro 2022 injury demons. Yet a leaky defence may hinder their deeper push.
2. Sweden
Sweden blitzed the competition in the Womens Euro 2025, defeating Germany for the first time in the tournament’s history. Their group stage dominance proved they’re a balanced and dangerous side. While their spread of goals highlights excellent team synergy, their pace-exposed defence remains a known weakness. If the backline holds firm in the knockout stages of Womens Euro 2025, they could pose a real threat to favourites like Spain.
1. Spain
- Wins: 3 | Lose: 0 | Draws: 0 |Goals Scored: 14
As pre-tournament favourites, Spain have delivered. They matched the record for most group goals (14), with Alexia Putellas contributing three goals and four assists. Rising star Vicky López has also stood out. Their attack is sensational, though their defence has room for error. Up next: a testing quarter-final versus hosts Switzerland in Bern.
The Womens Euro 2025 power rankings reflect a tournament full of rising narratives. Spain lead the way, but Sweden, France, and England are hot on their heels. Quarter-finals promise more drama—especially when underdogs like Switzerland and Italy face top-tier nations. Stay tuned as these rankings evolve through each thrilling phase.
