Beth Mead, Vivianne Miedema Set To Face At UEFA Women's Euro 2025

England forward Beth Mead and Dutch striker Vivianne Miedema, who have been in a relationship since 2022 and were former Arsenal teammates, are set to face each other in Group D of Euro 2025 in Zurich. Both players have previously won the Euros—Miedema in 2017 and Mead in 2022—and have overcome ACL injuries that sidelined them from the 2023 World Cup to return to full fitness for this tournament. Mead described their upcoming match as "inevitable" and emphasized their professionalism and competitiveness, noting that they avoid discussing football as the game approaches. Their relationship remains strong off the pitch, with shared focus on their dog Myle, who has been a source of comfort during their recoveries and training. The July 9 match between England and the Netherlands is highly anticipated, symbolizing both a personal and professional challenge for the couple. Both athletes are excited to compete while maintaining their personal bond despite the rivalry on the field.
