England are looking to defend their crown this summer but will need to navigate a tricky group if they are to be European champions once again.
Wales will join England after qualifying for their first major tournament and the two teams will meet in the same group, with two other European heavyweights.
France are in the same group along with manager Sarina Wiegman's native Netherlands. With the top two teams moving into the knockout rounds, it's by far and away the biggest group of death in the tournament.
