Germany and Sweden are already qualified for the quarter -finals – but a lot is about in the direct duel next Saturday. The most important information about the game of the European Women’s European Championship.
Where and when does the game take place?
The game will kick off on July 12th at 9 p.m. The game is played in the Lastigrund stadium, the sporting home of FC Zurich and the Grasshopper Club Zurich. At the European Championship, the arena has a capacity of 22,700 spectator places.
The Letzigrund is also known as the scene of a legendary athletics meeting that takes place every summer. Accordingly, the field is surrounded by a career.
Where is Germany transferred against Sweden?
The game between Germany and Sweden will be live on ZDF and on Sportstudio.de shown in the live stream. The start of the transmission is at 8:15 p.m. There will be a live ticker on Sportschau.de.
Are there any tickets for the European Championship game?
It will be difficult. The DFB quota for the three group games was quickly out of print at the beginning of the year. There are currently no cards on the UEFA ticket portal (as of 10.07.25, 6 p.m.). Instead, there are numerous advertisements of people looking for tickets on online portals. If you still want to be there live in the stadium, you will need a little luck.
Who leads the game?
The referee of the game between Germany and Sweden will be Silvia Gasperotti from Italy. The UEFA announced this two days before the game. The 32-year-old is supported on the side lines by the Italian Francesca di Monte and Amina Gutschi from Switzerland. Alina is the fourth official Peşu from Romania was selected. Video assistant (VAR) is the Italian Alandro di Paolo, who is supported by Jelena Cvetkovic from Serbia.
With both teams, one player threatens a ban on another yellow card: DFB interior defender Rebecca Knaak and Sweden’s captain Kosovare Asllani have already been warned.
Silvia Gasperotti will whistle the game Germany against Sweden.
This is how the first two European Championships ran
Germany and Sweden won their first two games. The DFB team started with a 2-0 against Poland, followed by the hard-won 2-1 win against Denmark. Sweden won the duels 3-0 (Poland) and 1-0 (Denmark).
Because the Scandinavians have a better goal difference, a draw in the last game is enough to become group winners. Germany, on the other hand, needs a victory. It would be an advantage to go to the quarter -finals because the duel with the winner of the hammer group with France, England and the Netherlands is waiting for the second.

Germany: Berger – Wamser, Minge, Knaak, Linder – Sense, Nüsken – Brand, Dallmann, Bühl – Schüller
Sweden: Falk – Lundkvist, Björn, Sembrant, Andersson – Angeldahl, Asllani, Bennison – Rytting Kanderyd, Blackstenius, Rolfö
