Belguim has to step up now. A defeat would be a massive choke after their convincing group stage. Goal 0:2.
It was never going to be a cakewalk for Belguim. Belguim barely defeated Japan 1:0 in a friendly at home last November.
Sorry Brasil, France, England, this is the tournament of the underdog, Belgium on the brink here!!! OMFG
Both are bad picks for what its worth. IMO. But should be enough to get out of qualifiers, just dont know if its best to get most of your upcoming youth Japan!
Wow Nippon! AFC is still kicking! First Iran sent Portugal to oblivion, second S.Korea eliminated Germany and now Japan is sending back Belgians packing!
It's almost impossible to turn around a two goal deficit in a knockout stage game. Never happened since 1998. I don't know when if prior to 1998.. But according to my statistics not since 32 Team World Cup.
