My Prediction
Spain by 4Alright, in one corner we've got Switzerland, led by their trusty goalkeeper, Livia Peng. Despite her commendable performance with six saves thus far, the Swiss team seems to be lacking in the attack department. They've relied heavily on Géraldine Reuteler who's been decent with a goal to her name and an 81.4% accuracy pass percentage, but it's often not a party of one in soccer, folks! Lia Wälti and Nadine Riesen, who clock in at 7.23 and 7.13 ratings respectively, round out the top performers for team Swiss, each with a mediocre, at best, showing in the tournament.
Now, Spain, oh Spain! They are clearly in it to win it. Adriana Nanclares may only have three saves under her belt, but when your midfield and forwards are ripping it up on the other side, it's a nice vacation in the back. Alexia Putellas's performance with a 9.40 rating is nothing short of a meteor shower. She's been lighting up the pitch with three goals and maintaining a healthy 88.8% pass accuracy rate. Mariona Caldentey and Patricia Guijarro aren't far behind, having netted a goal each and sustained above 85% pass accuracy.
The last tête-à-tête between these two teams was, well, not so tête-à-tête, with Spain giving Switzerland a soccer lesson in a 5-1 rout. Recently, Switzerland's been wobbly at best with one win, one draw, and one loss, whereas Spain's flaunting a perfect tournament record so far.
Fans must be gobsmacked with Spain's recent results, turning their opponents into spectators, and showing no signs of slowing down. Seriously, have you seen them play lately? They've managed to rout teams like Italy, Belgium, and Portugal without breaking a sweat. Switzerland's last outing against Finland ended in a disappointing draw.
As your friendly neighborhood commentator, I've got no choice but to say that, sadly, Switzerland would need a full-blown miracle to turn this one around.
