Back when the hazard brothers were with Belgium I used to think with Belgium’s squad would win it all the time because on paper they had some absolute STUDS. They’ve just never been able to play as a great unit. Very strange team to watch

It’s like they watch soccer on tv and know that normally if they roll around and yell they’ll get the foul. Absolute deer in headlights when told to get up. fricking love this

In 2018 they finished third and only lost 1-0 to France in the semis
If they were on the other side of bracket they would have made the final

So people saying they accomplished nothing is a bit harsh, lots of golden generations have no trophies and bunch of QF losses

As a Belgian fan, I haven’t expected a lot, but they’ve been underwhelming at best.

Unfortunately yes, but only because any team with some integrity like the US would have continued and tried to get the goal. Iran have been looking for fouls all game to slow the game. Thats a red in most cases

Stars may be aligning.
Most likely Face off against Iran in the round of 16 in Seattle if they can pull off a win.
Belgium down a man with 20 left.

That was a horrifically incorrect red-card against Belgium.

That was a damn dive.

Grabbed him briefly but the Iranian went down immediately. Unfortunately it’s why you see players flopping when it results in a red like that.
