European Championship finals

Venues and district (blue)

At the draw on November 8, 2016, Switzerland was assigned to Pot 2 as the best newcomer. In the first game in group C, Switzerland will meet neighboring Austria , who also qualified for the first time, then Iceland and France . Against France, the balance is negative: of the previous 20 games against the French, only four have been won and the points shared four times, but twelve lost. The last win against the French, Switzerland's first official opponent, was on August 14, 2002. Against the Icelanders there were four wins and a draw in two defeats in seven games, one defeat only being counted by the Icelandic Federation. Against Austria there were eleven wins, one draw and only one defeat in 13 games, although five wins by the Swiss Association are not counted. The only defeat against Austria was on May 19, 1996 in qualifying for the European Championships in 1997 and 2001 .

The first final game in Group C was lost against Austria by a goal by Nina Burger with 0: 1. The Swiss also fell behind in the second game against Iceland, but were able to equalize ten minutes later and turn around completely in the second half. This was the first time they won a European Championship finals game and with a win in the last game they still had the chance to reach the quarter-finals. After an emergency brake from French Eve Périsset , who received the red card , Ana Maria Crnogorčević scored the opening goal on Martina Moser's presentation . The Swiss were able to defend this against ten French women until the 76th minute when goalkeeper Gaëlle Thalmann was only able to steer a free kick taken by Abily into her own goal. The subsequent efforts to achieve the winning goal were unsuccessful, so that the Swiss were eliminated as third party. After the European Championship, record national players Martina Moser, Caroline Abbé , Vanessa Bürki and substitute goalkeeper Stenia Michel ended their international careers.
