Spain's Bonmati feeling '100 percent' after reaching Euros semis
Aitana Bonmati said that she is back to her best after starring in Friday's 2-0 win over hosts Switzerland which took Spain into the semi-finals of Women's Euro 2025.
Two-time Ballon d'Or winner Bonmati was named player of the match in Bern in her second start at the tournament after recovering from a bout of viral meningitis which briefly threatened her chances of playing in the Euros.
"Yeah, today I felt 100 percent physically. It was an intense 90 minutes, what I'm used to doing, so I'm happy," Bonmati told reporters.
"I didn't know if the meningitis would be a problem for the whole tournament, I worked hard to be ready as soon as I could and now I have my reward."
Bonmati played the pass from which Athenea del Castillo broke the brave Swiss resistance in the 66th minute at the Wankdorf Stadium and was key to Spain's patient possession game.
"I wanted to enjoy and feel myself as a football player, confident and full of energy. I suffered something that was out of my control, but I overcame it and I am proud that I turned it around."
In the last four, world champions Spain will face one of France or Germany in Zurich on Wednesday.
