Why oh why did Belgium entrust Roberto Martinez with that talented group?

Watch Canada win now when it’s too late. Can Belgium still go through with a draw if Morocco lose? What’s the goal difference have to be?
We go through with a draw if Canada beat Morocco by at least 3 goals (depending on yellow cards, it may have to be 4)...

Can’t you influence it by scoring so many or does it have to be Canada scoring 3 past Morocco?

Set up nicely this afternoon. Canada could start taking their chances, Belgium could turn up and get a result just when you write them off. Still I'm going for Croatia and Morocco to get through.

Finally Hazard has been dropped. He has been awful for 3 years now
Portugal should take note and drop Ronaldo

Croatia against Canada was one of the best performances this tournament! They should have too much for Belgium.

It seriously makes no sense

And not only that, the length of time they've had him too.

Belgium players know that thos is their last chance to do something with NT. I dlfully expect that they play their best football today.

Having said that; 2:1 win Croatia. :devil:

After the defensive dirge Wilmots was producing at their previous 2 tournaments, going out with a whimper to Argentina in WC2014 and to Wales in Euro 2016, Martinez had them playing great football at WC2018, knocking out Brazil and getting them to their best ever World Cup finish. He’s done a good job. “That talented group” are all ancient as feck now.

Eustaquio, Hutchinson, and David all not starting for Canada. Quite the changes. Anyone know why? I get David and Hutchinson, but Eustaquio has been quite good right?

Eustaquio is injured, not sure on David

I can hear Martin Tyler and some other dude commentating but not pausing for breath. Can't see Belgium keeping a clean sheet here.

Why was Carrasco just jogging into the box there? A bit of a sprint and he has a tap in
