The long shot from Thorgan Hazard who surprised Rui Patricio in the 42 ‘minute of play was the only goal of this great poster between Belgium, semi-finalist of the 2018 World Cup and Portugal, defending champion. Fernando Santos’ men pushed to come back in the second half as evidenced by their 23 attempts but never succeeded in deceiving the vigilance of Thibaut Courtois. Jason Denayer and Anthony Lopes did not appear in the game. The Belgians therefore reach the penultimate square of the competition and will find Italy, winner against Austria, on July 2 at 9 p.m. in Munich.
Former Lyonnais Memphis Depay also leaves the competition as the Oranje were defeated 2-0 by the Czech Republic after being left to 10 following the exclusion of Matthijs De Ligt.
Léo Dubois’ France team will face Switzerland tonight at 9pm at the National Arena in Bucharest.
Brazil also played the last match of their Copa America group stage against Ecuador. Lucas Paqueta was back in the starting 11. Despite the 1-1 draw, the Selecao finished 1st in its group 3 lengths from Peru, second in this group B.
