    I expect Russia to frustrate Belgium as they have very little quality and are spoilers under Capello ( That's what you get for 6 million pounds a year)

    1-0 to Belgium or possibly a 1-1

    Big fan of Alderweireld, quality player. Hope Capello gets a thumping but think it will be a tight game and probably a draw.
  • sam3110sam3110
    Hazard and Lukaku to score, Kerzakhov to get a late consolation, 2-1

    Awful game so far
  • AbsurdistanAbsurdistan
    I do wish Kompany was English.

    Quality acting by the Belgian there to get the Russian booked. Obviously taking a leaf from their neighbours. Cheat.

    Gotta love the Belgium keeper without doubt the best in the world

    Toss up between Greece Japan and this for dullest game of the tournament so far, and at least that had a bit of a talking point with the sending off.

    Russians to win with a dodgy decision. Blatter there to make sure it happens.

    Blimey this is poor.

    Well they should have had a penalty in the first half.

    Must have fallen asleep for that. Capello clearly doesn't trust Dzaegov for some reason.

    Belgium Hit post. Hazard not too far away.

    Capello's teams are deathly dull to watch. Main tactic seems to be stop Hazard playing. Bit disappointed with the game.

    Belgium's defence looks a bit lightweight particularly in the air. Why do Belgium keepers insist on punching the ball ?

    Goal ! Well done Belgium. Looked more dangerous since the subs have come on.

    Bet the manager says that it was the plan all along.

    Better overall quality from Belgium.

    Good finish good run by hazard
  • AbsurdistanAbsurdistan
    yes, take that Capello

    Wilmots has certainly done well with his subs in both games. Hazard has come alive in the last few minutes. Great run there and good finish by Origi. Keeper got a hand to it but not enough.
  • AbsurdistanAbsurdistan
    That Origi looks a decent player. Get your cheque book out Roland.
  • vffvff
    Mirellas should have buried that one for 2.

    Russia will need a low scoring Algerian win or draw in the next game. Not quite out yet, but not looking good for the Russians, who were decidely average.
  • ValleyGaryValleyGary
    Still not overly impressed by Belgium.

    Capello is a terrible World Cup manager!!!
  • TelMc32TelMc32
    Congratulations byl...had been expecting more from Belgium, but this could see them open up a bit and show what they're really capable of. Big respect for Wilmots...very decisive subs and not afraid to take risks.
  • vffvff
    Well done to Belgium for getting through to the next round.
  • LenGloverLenGlover
    I do quite like Belgium's football, even though today wasn't great, but a big minus point is the uncanny resemblance of their manager to David Cameron.
