Luxembourg no doubt faces quite the challenge in taking on Sweden on Tuesday in UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 Qualifying play.
Sweden is ranked No. 5 in the world. However, Luxembourg has previous experience in facing giants in the women’s game, as it took on England in a friendly earlier this year.
The country lost 9-0 then and 4-0 against Sweden on Friday. Sweden had 71.2 percent of possession time in the match. Filippa Angeldahl started alongside Hanna Bennison and Rosa Kafaji in the Swedish midfield.
