Kick-off: June 28, 2026, at 20:00.

In the opening round of the UEFA Under-19 European Championship group stage, Wales will take on Spain at Racecourse Ground in Wrexham. The teams have met twice previously at this age level. In 2009, during the first qualifying round, Wales suffered a narrow 0-1 defeat. A decade later, in the second qualifying round of the 2019 campaign, Spain cruised to a commanding 5-1 victory, with Ferran Torres contributing two goals and an assist, while Juan Miranda provided two assists.

Wales is preparing for a historic occasion as the only debutant in the tournament finals. The team secured its place at the UEFA Under-19 European Championship as the host nation, which exempted it from the qualification process. As a result, Chris Gunter's side focused on a series of friendly matches. During that period, Wales suffered heavy defeats to the United States, 0-4, Hungary, 0-4, Germany, 0-3, England, 0-7, Switzerland, 2-5, and Belgium, 1-3. However, the Welsh side also recorded victories over Japan, 3-2, Qatar, 2-0, and the Netherlands, 2-0.
