England Fans Look For Tuchel's Touch

PARIS - International football gets under way in Europe for the first time in 2025 as the Nations League moves into the quarter-final stage and the continent's 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign gets going.

Nations League promotion and relegation play-offs are also on the cards in a week when all the European big guns are in action. AFP Sport looks at five talking points ahead of the action.

Spain's Title Defence Gets Real Spain travel to face the Netherlands on March 20 in the Nations League quarter-final first leg, with Luis de la Fuente's side looking to win their third consecutive title after success in the 2023 edition of the competition and their stunning European Championship triumph in 2024. Euro 2024 breakout stars Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams, as well as Dani Olmo and Alvaro Morata, are in the squad who will play the return leg at home three days later. Denmark take on 2019 winners Portugal, 2021 champions France face Croatia, while Germany meet Italy in the remaining last-eight ties of this first edition of the expanded Nations League final phase.
