The stoppage-time leveler by substitute Riola Xhemaili advanced the Swiss at the expense of the Finns — and earned the hosts a full week of anticipation before its first ever knockout game at a Women’s Euros. The wait was a mighty long time — 41 years — and will end next Friday in Bern, likely against world champion Spain.

Substitute Riola Xhemaili levelled the scores in the 92nd minute at Stade de Geneve to send Switzerland through at Finland's expense.

Switzerland's Riola Xhemaili scored a last-gasp goal to salvage a dramatic 1-1 draw with Finland on Thursday that sent the joyous hosts through to the quarter-finals at Euro 2025, and heartbroken Finland home.
