France – Belgium, it’s this Monday. A highly anticipated duel between two neighboring and rival nations.
Many articles have flourished in recent days about the France – Belgium match. It’s the turn of the famous French newspaper The team to preface the meeting.
“Belgium can be an opponent which, in terms of form, is not at the top, but which still has some ‘big’ players capable of making the difference”, we can read in the newspaper We are talking in particular about Romelu Lukakuyet very unlucky since the start of the tournament.
“Even if he seems to be reaching his limits at the moment during this Euro, Lukaku remains an excellent centre-forward and a threat when he can be found deep.”
“The statistics don’t lie: if VAR hadn’t intervened, Lukaku would have been joint top scorer of this Euro with three goals,” recalls The team.
Kevin De Bruyne, captain of our national team, is also mentioned: he is described as a world-class player, an icon of Belgian football and an outstanding passer, even if it seems that it is not in his nature to be captain. “But dare not respect him. In Stuttgart, he refused to greet the whistling and gesticulating Belgian fans after the debacle against Ukraine…” A rather special, but evocative, warning.
