the Belgian Red Flames are gearing up for the UEFA women’s Euro 2025,with the tournament draw set to take place soon. While the team is prepared to face any opponent, captain Tessa Wullaert and head coach Ives Serneels have a shared wish: to avoid England and Spain.
“it would be perfect to avoid England and Spain,” Wullaert said. “We’ve played them too much recently.”
The sentiment is understandable. Belgium has faced both England and spain in the past thirteen months, including during the UEFA Women’s Nations League and Euro qualifiers. they will also encounter thes teams again in the upcoming Nations League campaign, which begins in February and includes Portugal as the third opponent.
Adding to the potential for déjà vu, the Euro 2025 draw could place Belgium in the same group as England and Spain once again.
However, a repeat of their Euro 2022 group stage opponents, iceland and Italy, is impossible as both teams are in the same pot for the draw.
