Belgium Beat England 2-0 To Win Third Place

Date:

Belgium secured the bronze medal at the 2018 World Cup after goals from Thomas Meunier  and Eden Hazard secured a 2-0 win over England.

Both coaches went with strong line ups for the clash, while Thomas Meunier, who missed the clash against France due to suspension, returned for the Belgians.

However, the Red Devils sealed the win with eight minutes remaining as Kevin de Bruyne’s pass found Eden Hazard, who calmly slotted past Pickford.

England went agonisingly close to breaking the deadlock on 70 minutes after combing with Marcus Rashford but his effort was brilliantly cleared off the line by Toby Alderweireld.

The win sees Belgium achieve their highest ever finish at World Cup after collecting bronze.
