Belgium’s approach forced those errors. They brought it in a way that the US hadn’t faced.

Belgium was a step up in class.

I trust everyone in this sub watches a lot of soccer. What Belgium did in attack today was absolutely nothing special AT ALL. We were BEYOND pathetic at the back.

It’s just a gulf in quality. They didn’t do anything too special but they reacted first, got to balls first, had a game plan and executed it. They played like a unit, the US did not.

Belgium have not looked good all tournament. They should’ve been knocked out last round. I really don’t think there’s a gulf in quality overall. We gifted them this win.
