With two more games ahead – Friday in Leuven against Scotland and next Tuesday in Tilburg against the Netherlands – the Red Flames are second in Group 1 of the Nations League with 7 points, behind the Netherlands (9), but ahead of England (6). and Scotland (1).
“Everything is still possible in our group,” national coach Ives Serneels looked ahead on Monday in Tubize. “If we win twice, we will be group winners, but if we lose twice we could still finish last and be relegated.”
The group winner qualifies for the Final Four, where two tickets for the Olympic Games in Paris can be earned. “I don’t want to think about that yet,” says Serneels. “I don’t look beyond the group stage, Paris is still a long way away. I don’t want it to be talked about in the group of players or the staff. The reality is that we still have a third of the group stage to complete. We still have only four of six games behind us. We can win everything, but we can also lose everything.”
