Women’s Euro 2025: England defiant, Spain v Belgium, Portugal v Italy buildup – live

Key events

Let’s have a look at today’s Group B games at Euro 2025. Belgium are up against it in the early kick-off against Spain having already lost their opening game 1-0 to Italy last Thursday. They may struggle to keep Spain out at one end but they can still do damage at the other. Inter striker Tessa Wullaert is very much Belgium’s talisman and scored against Spain in the Nations League in February.

Here is Wim Conings on Belgium’s No 9 in our tournament team preview:

Few countries will have such a standout player as Belgium. The 32-year-old Inter striker Tessa Wullaert is the country’s record scorer, having found the net 92 times and is not slowing down: recently scoring against Spain, England (twice) and Portugal (twice). She normally has two defenders marking her but if she feels she is not getting involved enough she will drop deeper into midfield and start play from there. Any team that can keep her out of the game will either draw or beat Belgium.
