“I had made tactically different substitutions”

“I am not only disappointed with the result, but also with the game that the Belgians bring. There was too little speed in the game, so we could not create chances. I had the feeling that Morocco wanted to fight more for this victory.” says Tessa Wullaert. But Wullaert not only noticed the slow game, she also questions the decisions of national coach Roberto Martinez: “I would have tactically chosen to bring in other players to bring more speed into the game. The only bright spot is that Romelu Lukaku was back in the line today.” Tessa Wullaert remains hopeful, but then it should be better on Thursday.

Sammy Bossut also saw that things were not going well for the Belgians. He wants to see more attacking football: “We play too much backwards, and I expect more running movements at the front to create more spaces and enforce opportunities. A hearty word will have to be spoken and it will be said clearly what needs to change .” Yet Bossut continues to believe in it.
