No topic last week due to me standing in an area with very little internet coverage, sorry :s

This week we decided to spend some TS in order to surprise Ukraine, this finally paid off in a very fiercely fought game :

Considering our next 3 opponents it seemed like a good time to take risks, since we cannot qualify. However, these good results prove that our apporach is correct and the team didn't steal his qualification spot : Belgium is tricky to play against thanks to our tactical variety and this is very comfortable for the NT manager.

Next week we'll face Poland, who recovered from it's initial defeat against France by crushing Italy, needless to say that things don't look too good for us ... but once again, qualification was impossible to achieve.

Thank you everyone, but as always, Joe deserves much more credit than I do.

We needed to take every possible risk against France, we knew thei PA wasn't very good so they needed to close the gap, possibly playing a quick tactic. And after we had run tests against them an inside one was unlikely. That narrowed it down to run and gun or push the ball, we went for push and we won.

Needless to say that beating France with the same enthusiasm is not a light feat for Belgium, and of course I'm absolutely delighted.

Yet I can't feel good because philou (french NT manager) is really a good guy and one of the few BB-friends I've got outside Belgium, and we pretty much sunk their chances of making it into the next round.

So we'll have a last game against Slovakia, certainly the most dangerous team of this pool, so don't expect any miracles ;)
