JAKARTA - Belgium and Canada will play their first match in Group F of the 2022 Qatar World Cup at Ahmad bin Ali Stadium, Thursday, November 24 in the morning WIB.
This match will be Canada's first appearance in the quadrennial event after qualifying for the finals in 36 years. As for Belgium, this is the last chance for their 'Golden Generation' to win a major tournament.
Belgium coach Roberto Martinez is also under pressure to win a major competition after failing at Euro 2020 last year and the UEFA Nations League final. The two records led to dissatisfaction among supporters.
On paper, Setah Merah was recorded to have qualified for Qatar very easily through European qualification. They even scored more than three goals per game on average.
However, they often perform poorly when facing really important matches in major tournaments. An example is their defeat against Italy at Euro 2020.
Belgium experienced the next painful defeat when they met France in the semifinals of the UEFA Nations League in October 2021. The Red Devils at that time lost 2-3 after winning two goals over the Good Chicken.
After that, they also lost in aways and homes when they met the Netherlands and lost to Egypt in a friendly. This note is clearly disappointing because before they had never lost three times in a row since 2014.
When Belgium comes with bad results, Canada actually comes with the material of young players who successfully topped the CONCACAF zone qualifiers to penetrate Qatar.
This is Canada's second appearance in the tournament after they made their only appearance in the finals in 1986.
At that time they lost all three games without scoring. Therefore, they automatically come with the desire to perform better even if they fill a difficult group.
Canadian Vs Belgian Line-up Forecast:
Belgium (3-4-3): Courtois; Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Debast; Meunier, Tielemans, Witsel, Castagne; De Bruyne, Batshuayi, Eden Hazard
Canada (5-3-2): Borjan; Laryea, Johnston, Steven Vitoria, K Miller, Adekugbe; Buchanan, Hutchinson, Eustaquio; David, Larun
