An experienced couple recalled the latest team for women in England after injuries

In April, English women returned in April in the UEFA nation’s nation double the Belgium header, and Sarina Wiegman called a team with 25 players for the second international break of 2025.

Lionese, who will strive to defend their continental crown at the Euro 2025 in Switzerland this summer, began with a calendar year by drawing against Portugal and winning the World Champion of Spain in February to start a new nation campaign.

There are few surprises with Wiegman’s choice that will face the Belgian home and far, but the young man Brighton & Hove Albion Maisie Symonds was invited for the first time.

Chloe Kelly is included from off, initially omitted in February due to concern about the lack of playing time on the club level, before it was then drawn as a replacement of injury.

The experience of veteran Beth Mead and Fran Kirby are returning from the injury and returning to the team, and the 20-year-old talent Manchester City Khiara Keating added a goalkeeper group for the first time in ten months. But there is no room for the left back of George Manchester United, after returning to Pregib Lionesea on the tail end of 2024.

England faced Belgium four times on Wiegman’s watch, winning three times, but losing the latest meeting between the parties in Leuven in October 2023. Lionnesses will play hosts at the sold out Ashton Gate in Bristol on Friday, April 4, before returning to Leven four days later.
