This ^. Algeria played a good tacitcal game agaisnt Belgium. Had Algeria played in the same fashion against Belgium as they did against South Korea they would have been giving up goal opportunity after goal opportunity. Belgium converted it's only counter attack possibility against Algeria. Had Belgium had 10-15 counters Algeria would have l;ikely given up 5-7 goals while scoring 1-3.

 

The advantage that Algeria has is the same one Mexico played with today, they're not playing for the win. It's essentially the same as being spotted a free goal from the whistle.

 

The way Algeria played against belgium is rlly shameful, are they so afraid of us??

 

erm they didn't play from the beginning against belgium...

 

There is anyone from Belgium here coming to São Paulo watch Belgium x Korea Rep.? I'm gonna watch this game and i look over all city to find a Belgium national team Away Jersey and a Belgium Scarf and didn't find.

If someone bring some extras from Belgium i want to buy!

 

belgium rests 6 players for tonights game with korea.

starting line up: Courtois, Vanden Borre, Van Buyten, Lombaerts, Vertonghen, Defour, Dembele, Fellaini, Mertens, Januzaj, Mirallas

So no Kompany, Alderweireld, De Bruyne, Witsel, Hazard or Lukaku

 

They can lose 1st spot FFS. They have a 2 GD. A defeat means 1 and an Algeria win means 2nd for Belgium

 

Ok time to scout USA's opponent Belgium

 

S Korea impressive. Ref not doing the best of jobs....

 

wow crazy miss by Belgium

 

Something's up with this ref....

 

great save there great 2 saves Belgium looking on edge right now

 

South Korea giving Belgium all they could handle on that last sequence saved off the goal line.

 

Russia looking way better than Algeria. Strongly favoring the 2018 hosts' chances to play Germany.
SK has to hope the 1-0 scoreline holds. Both Belgium and them have had good chances this game, but Korea need to put two in... no easy task by any means.

 

Group of Belgians waffling over who will take the free kick.

 

o_o A RED CARD ON BELGIUM OMG South Korea has a real chance now. If they win 2-0 and Russia keeps it 1-0 then Russia will top the group

 

red card????

 

Korea looks as dangerous as an infant

 

eh... kind of a needless red card. banned for next match vs USA too then?

 

What was Defour thinking, sent off for an idiotic foot stomp to the shin. Either his brain doesn't readily recognize the difference certainly visual stimuli, like shins vs. balls, or he's just dumb.

 

Similar to Ecuador's Valencia's red card.

 

Oh wait never mind Russia doesn't have 3 point my bad that's Algeria

 

They look more lively than the team that couldn't score on 10 man Greece....

 

True.

They picked it up a bit. We'll see what happens
