Aitana Bonmati, who scored the decisive goal for Spain in the semi-finals of the Women's Euro Football, was asked, 'How is it feeling?'

His answer was, 'I can play a book about this.' 

At the end of June, one of the best players in world women's soccer was lying in a hospital bed. It seemed certain that he would not be able to play the tournament in Switzerland. Now she is preparing for the final against England in Basel on Sunday. 

This will be a repeat of the 2023 World Cup final. In the semi-final against Germany, he scored the decisive goal in the 1-0 victory at the end of extra time. While receiving the best player award in the semi-final in Zurich, she smiled to the media and said, 'Whenever my shot turned into a goal, I was running madly with joy. Scoring a goal in such a big game is always special. If I can make my team win, it will be even more special.' 

This Barcelona midfielder won the Ballon d'Or in the last two consecutive years. At the end of June, she fell ill and was admitted to the hospital. Various tests were also confirmed. He was infected with viral meningitis. So she watched Spain's friendly match against Japan from her hospital bed. Viral meningitis itself is not a serious illness, but the possibility that he will not be ready to be fit until the Euros is equally strong. 

But, surprisingly, she recovered and played the first match of the tournament as a substitute. Spain won that match 5-0 in Bern. In the last match of the group stage, she was included in the starting team of Spain, which resulted in a 3-1 victory. He also got an opportunity to play from the start in the quarter finals against the host country. Then he scored the only decisive goal against Germany. "I don't believe in fate," she says about the whole incident. 

He says, 'Whatever work is done, it is done with hard work, with one's own strong mental state. I want to say thank you to those who supported me when I was in trouble. Nothing was easy when he was really sick. Coach Mantse Tom is also amazed at the courage he showed in this short trip to Bonmati. She says, "She didn't get off to an easy start in the Euros." But she overcame her health problems. She worked hard to get fit.' 

This is the first time that Spain has reached the final of the Women's Euro. This achievement came two years after winning the Women's World Cup. It was also the first time that Spain had won the Women's World Cup at that time. Spain beat England in the World Cup final in Sydney. One of the hero players of that campaign was Bonmati himself. Now both Spain and Bomanati are dreaming of winning their first European title. This 'La Raja' team is also a strong contender for the title before the final. 

Well, England are the defending champions of the Euros. Recently, these two teams are coming forward as the biggest rivals in women's international football. Not only in the 2023 Women's World Cup, Spain also beat England in the men's Euro final in Berlin last year. Last May, Arsenal beat Barcelona in the Women's European Champions League final. Arsenal has many members of the current English team.  The

coach will be Sarina Wegman. Seven Barcelona players who played in that final in Lisbon were also in the semi-final against Germany on Wednesday. They played from the beginning. Among them, the goalkeeper Kata Cole stopped many German attacks. In the end Bonmati scored the decisive goal. Later, Bonmati said about her fellow goalkeeper Kolbare, "Kole played very well. She is the one who saved us when it was difficult and difficult in the game.'
