What Stands Out: The defending World Cup and UEFA Nations League champs, Spain — FIFA’s No. 2-ranked team after the 2024 Olympic gold medalist United States — enters this summer’s Euro as the favorite to win what would be La Roja’s first major continental honor.

Top Players To Watch: With Alexia Putellas, at the time the world’s best player, severely limited at the 2023 World Cup following knee surgery, Aitana Bonmatí and Irene Paredes keyed Spain’s iconic win. The two veterans plus Putellas will lead the way this summer, especially with fellow vet Jenni Hermoso — La Roja’s top scorer during qualifying — controversially left off the final roster by head coach Montserrat Tomé.
Keep An Eye On: Eighteen-year-old Barcelona playmaker Vicky López, the youngest member of Tomé’s 23-woman squad.
This Euro Will Be A Success If: Spain wins the title for the first time. Anything less would be a major disappointment for the consensus pick to win it all. Bonmatí is also working back from a brief hospitalization due to viral meningitis, but hopefully it won’t affect her too much.
