The UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 hosts put on a dream performance in front of a record crowd in Bern, Switzerland, on Sunday. After a disappointing opening day loss to Norway, Switzerland came back to defeat Iceland 2-0 in front of 29,658 fans, the sixth-largest women’s EURO tournament crowd ever, and the third of 2025 to make the top ten.
“It’s incredible,” Switzerland captain Lia Wälti said after the win about the support of the Swiss fans. “Before the game, I probably cried about three times already because when we came to the stadium, seeing all the fans, the videos of the city, and how amazing people are in supporting us – it’s something we’ve never experienced in Switzerland. So we’re going to have to really enjoy it.”
