EM: Switzerland Wins Bid for Euro 2025
Switzerland has been awarded the hosting rights for the Euro 2025 women's football tournament, marking a significant milestone for Swiss women's football. The Swiss Football Association (SFV) initiated the bid in 2021, overcoming initial reservations and securing financial support from cities and cantons.
