Sweden Advances to Euro 2025 Quarter-Finals with 3-0 Win over Poland

Stina Blackstenius played a pivotal role in Sweden's 3-0 victory over Poland, scoring the opening goal and consistently pressuring the defense, which secured Sweden's place in the UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 quarter-finals. Kosovare Asllani and former Arsenal forward Lina Hurtig also contributed goals, with all three scoring headers in a dominant performance. Sweden currently leads Group C with six points from two matches and will face Germany next, with the winner or runner-up of Group D to be their subsequent opponent in the knockout stages. The match showcased Sweden's strong attacking presence, particularly from players like Johanna Rytting Kaneryd, who caused significant trouble for Poland with her speed and skill. Despite some missed opportunities and a desire for more clinical finishing, Sweden's form and support provide confidence as they prepare for tougher challenges ahead. Arsenal players not involved in the tournament are set to return to pre-season training soon, marking a transition period for the club.
