Belgium vs Liechtenstein: Match Report & Highlights

The Red Devils did not tremble to prevail widely on the Liechtenstein field (0-6).

Belgium, favorite of group J of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, ensured its status by winning against Liechtenstein (6-0), Thursday in Vaduz. The Red Devils have long stumbled on the local defense until the opening of Maxim de Cuyper’s scoring at half an hour of play. The rest was simpler for the men of French coach Rudi Garcia with a goal from his Captain Youri Tielemans shortly after the break (46th).

Faced with a low opposition, the Belgians were full of addition with goals signed Arthur Théathe (60th), Kevin de Bruyne (62nd), Tielemans (70th on penalty) and Malick Fofana (90th). “It was an almost perfect match. We forgot to frame our many strikes in the first period. It’s the only regret “said the coach. Despite its victory, Belgium (7 pts) remains third in the J group behind the North Macedonia (8 pts) and the Wales (10 pts). Sunday, the Red Devils welcome Kazakhstan, fourth, in Brussels.
