Belgium-England was played in Leuven, the hometown of Dries Mertens, author of the 2-0 goal of the ‘Red Devils’. Before the Nations League match, the Napoli striker spoke to local media microphones: “It’s nice to be back, it reminds me of my childhood, when I started playing football here. It was a beautiful time in my life. It will be a special moment, obviously it would have been better with the public. I remember when I was a ball boy. I did it because they gave us a hamburger at the interval (laughs).
Ending your career in Belgium? I do not think so. I have a contract with Napoli, I hope to continue playing with them for other years. Maybe after I hang up my boots I could go back to live in Belgium”
