Signature moment
Round of 16, 2018 World Cup: Belgium were losing to Japan 0-2 before staging one of the most chaotic comebacks in tournament history to win 3-2, capped by a goal in the 94th minute from a counter-attack that started in their own box. It was peak Belgium — frantic, brilliant, and somehow inevitable. They went on to finish third that tournament, their best-ever result, and the pain of 'what if' has been fueling them ever since.
The ones to watch
- Romelu LukakuFWDBuilt like a plot twist and scores goals that make defenders question their life choices — love him or hate him, he's impossible to ignore.
- Kevin De BruyneMIDThe rare player who makes a pass look like a personal insult to the opposing team's entire defensive strategy.
- Lois OpendaFWDThe next chapter of Belgian flair — fast, direct, and very much here to remind everyone the Golden Generation has a sequel.
- Youri TielemansMIDQuietly does the hard work so De Bruyne can do the flashy work, which is somehow even more impressive.
- Arthur TheateDEFA left-footed defender with serious range and the composure of someone who has absolutely read the room.
One email the morning of their opener. Nothing else.
