Women’s Euro 2025 Draw: England Faces Wales, France, Netherlands In Tough Group

The draw for the UEFA Women’s European Championship 202 was made on Monday, with holders England set to face France in Group D and World Cup winners Spain to come up against Italy in Group B.

England will face a challenging draw against the Netherlands, the 2017 champions, and tournament newcomers Wales.

Meanwhile, Spain and Italy’s group will include Belgium and Portugal.

England coach, Sarina Wiegman, guided the Dutch to the trophy in 2017 before leading the Lionesses’ triumph in 2022. Montse Tome, meanwhile, will be hoping Spain can pick up the only major title that the nation’s men’s and women’s teams have not yet claimed.
