England and Spain are scheduled to meet in the Euro 2025 final, showcasing their ascension in women's football. England has a history of achievements with finals in 1984 and 2009, while both nations lifted their first major trophies within a year of each other. Their last encounter was in the 2023 World Cup final, with Spain winning. Despite differing football styles, statistical analysis shows a narrow margin between them, highlighting the competitiveness of both teams on the international stage.
While England's recent achievements may have come a few years earlier than Spain's, the comparisons between the two are clear. The Lionesses have more historic success, reaching the European Championship final in both 1984 and 2009, and have been among the final four in their last six tournaments.
Both teams lifted their first major trophies within 12 months of each other—England in 2022 and Spain in 2023. Over the last three years, both have proved they have the squad and resources that could maintain this success for years to come.
