UEFA Nations League 2024 Draw: France, Italy And Belgium In Same Group

FIFA World Cup 2022 runners-up France, European champions Italy, Belgium and Israel were drawn together in a tough group on Thursday, February 9, for the men's UEFA Nations League that starts in September 2024, Associated Press reported. The Nations League is the next action for UEFA member countries after this summer's European Championship, where France, Italy and Belgium — all top-10 teams in the FIFA world rankings — have qualified for the tournament in Germany and Israel is in the playoffs next month. Nations League champions Spain were drawn in a group with Denmark plus Switzerland and Serbia who will resume a strong rivalry that was fueled by Swiss wins in their games at the past two World Cups. Euro 2024 hosts Germany are in a Nations League top-tier group with Netherlands, Hungary and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
