- Team want to show progress since 3-2 loss in 2023
- Gamechanger Michelle Agyemang gets first senior call-up
Sarina Wiegman says England want to “get revenge on ourselves” and prove they have made marked improvements since losing in Belgium a year and a half ago when they return to the same stadium here on Tuesday.
The Lionesses were beaten 3-2 by Belgium on 31 October 2023 on their most recent visit to the King Power at Den Dreef stadium, a result which badly damaged their attempt to qualify for last summer’s Olympics on behalf of Team GB. It epitomised the somewhat sticky patch the injury-hit European champions were in at the time, their performances dipping after they lost the 2023 World Cup final.
