The most important match of the first day lived up to expectations and kept the beautiful crowd at the Pavello Municipal d’Esport in Olot in suspense. Portugal managed to contain Spain’s strength for more than half the match: up until six minutes from the end the score was very close, and then it widened to 5-1. Portugal opened the scoring with Santos, and the Spanish equalizer only came in the 10th minute with Florenza. Goalkeeper Vicente managed to save many chances but could do nothing in Casarramona’s tap-in which then allowed Spain to strike three more times. Alongside Spain’s three Group points, also Italy’s three points against France. The Italians led by Pamela Lapolla, captain and hat-trick this evening, managed to win against the dynamic France who only found the two final goals to end the result at 5-2. In Group B, a peremptory victory for Switzerland over England with a result of 7-0. Jasmin Schuler scored two goals, but the other five goals were scored by five different players. Tomorrow Portugal will challenge Italy to seek their first victory (18:00), while France will play against Spain (20:30).. Tomorrow at 15:30 (CET) the match between Switzerland and Germany for another day full of emotions.
