Match stats for the UEFA Women's EURO 2017 as Group D clash between Spain v Portugal at Stadion De Vijverberg - Doetinchem on Wednesday.
Portugal are making their major tournament debut against neighbours Spain, in a Group D opener followed by
another derby, England v Scotland.
The Iberian rivals had never met competitively before being drawn together in qualifying for UEFA Women's EURO
2017
In December 2015 in Badajoz, Spain won 2-0 with first-half goals from Vicky Losada and Sonia Bermúdez.
In April 2016, Spain then triumphed 4-1 in Covilha. Virginia Torrecilla and Alexia Putellas gave the visitors a 2-0 halftime lead, and although Dolores Silva pulled one back, Amanda Sampedro and Verónica Boquete scored in the last
three minutes for Spain.
The teams had previously met twice in friendlies. On 5 February 1994, Spain won 1-0 in Chaves but exactly 11 years earlier it was 1-0 to Portugal in La Guardia.
Portugal's Raquel Infante is based in Spain with Levante.
