Spain sweeps Belgium off the field 6-2 – European Championship fever is rising!
The spectators experienced an exciting football game on Friday in Thun when the Spanish footballers won 6-2 against Belgium in the second group game of the European Championship. They build on their previous 5-0 win against Portugal and impressively show that they are very popular. After these two wins, Spain now has a good chance of qualifying for the knockout round, as nw.de reports.
The match in front of 7,961 enthusiastic fans started promisingly. Alexia Putellas, who was in great form, scored two goals (22nd and 86th minute) and helped her team to a brilliant performance. In the first half, Belgium was defensively disciplined, but Justine Vanhaevermaet (24th minute) equalized at 1-1 after converting a corner. But Irene Paredes put Spain back in the lead shortly afterwards (39th minute), also with a header from a corner.
Spanish dominance in the second half
In the second half, the Spaniards increased the pressure and achieved a clear victory with further goals from Esther González (52nd minute), Mariona Caldentey (61st minute) and Cláudia Pina (81st minute). Pina's long-range shot, which hit the top right corner of the goal, was particularly worth seeing and was rewarded with jubilant applause from the spectators.
Particular attention was also paid to Aitana Bonmatí, who returned to the European Championship quarters after a health problem and came on as a substitute for top talent Vicky López in the second half, as tag24.de reported. This effort not only shows their return to form, but also the fighting spirit of the entire team.
Outlook and further games
The victory over Belgium is a clear sign that Spain is ready to go far in this European Championship. With the strong performance and self-confidence from two victorious games, the Spanish players can look forward to the next tasks with optimism. The next group stage games promise equally exciting encounters as teams look to qualify for the knockout rounds.
