Spain midfielder Aitana Bonmatí is grateful to have swapped a hospital bed for a Euro 2025 quarterfinal after recovering from viral meningitis.

Spanish playmaker Aitana Bonmati has returned to full fitness following a meningitis scare. As the Women's Euro approaches, she is determined to make history when Spain faces Switzerland in the quarter-finals.

Indeed, on the way to World Cup glory in 2023, La Roja suffered a 4-0 loss to Japan in the group stage. They went on to win the four meetings that mattered most in the knockout stages, and the first was a 5-1 victory over the Swiss in the Round of 16.
