Germany to face Peru & Belgium in March 2023!

In preparation for UEFA EURO 2024 in Germany, the German national side will play Peru and Belgium in their first international matches of the year, as decided by the Supervisory Board and General Assembly of DFB GmbH & Co. KG at their joint meeting yesterday, January 27 on the DFB campus in Frankfurt.

Germany head coach Hansi Flick and his side will face Peru on March 25 in Mainz and Belgium on March 28 at the RheinEnergieStadium in Cologne, one of the ten venues for the UEFA European Championship. Hansi Flick is expected to announce the squad for both matches on March 17.

Speaking about these matches, Hansi Flick said, “Preparation for the home European Championship begins for us with Peru and Belgium. We are looking forward to this tournament with great excitement and want to develop a passionate and energetic team that plays attractive and successful football for Germany. At this point, we want to try out a few things, which means making bold and surprising decisions. We can’t wait for the matches, everyone is fired up and ready to get started.”

The German national team has faced Peru twice and won both matches, the last one a 2-1 victory in September 2018 in Sinsheim, while there have been 25 meetings with Belgium, with 20 wins, one draw, and four defeats. The most recent encounter goes back more than ten years to October 2011, when Germany won 3-1 in Düsseldorf in a UEFA European Championship qualifier match.
