Southgate looking forward to Belgium test as England build towards Euros

GARETH SOUTHGATE is looking forward to seeing new players in another high-level test as England continue to “build towards the summer” by hosting Belgium fresh from their defeat to Brazil.

Among the favourites to become continental champions in Germany, the Euro 2020 runners-up are third in Fifa’s world rankings and organised March friendlies against the two nations directly below them.

Five-time world champions Brazil sit fifth and on Saturday inflicted England’s first defeat since their World Cup quarter-final exit to France 15 months ago, with 17-year-old substitute Endrick sealing a late 1-0 triumph.
