Another round-up from the 2018 World Cup in Russia, focusing on outstanding displays of attacking flair from Belgium and England as they brush aside minnows Tunisia and Panama with ease.
There are many similarities between Belgium and England. We’re nations transfixed on eating chips, but we are also alike when it comes to our international football teams promoting false hope.
In many ways, Belgium’s current crop of players reminds me of the England squad in 1998. We were playing in France. We couldn’t use the heat or humidity as an excuse. We knew that South American sides never won on European soil, so it was down to Germany, France, Italy, Spain or us.
David Beckham, Paul Scholes, Gary Neville, Michael Owen, Rio Ferdinand, Sol Campbell, Paul Ince and Alan Shearer.
