In the hot seat after another defeat against the Blues on Monday, Domenico Tedesco regretted the lack of efficiency of his Belgian selection.
Another failure for Belgium. Monday evening during the 4th day of the Nations League, the Belgians were once again subjected to the law of the French team (1-2), carried by a double from Randal Kolo Muani. This third defeat of the Belgian selection against the Blues in 2024 – the fifth in a row since 2018 – further weakens its coach Domenico Tedesco, criticized by the Brussels public with blows. “Tedesco resign!” came down from the stands of the King Baudouin stadium at the end of the game.
“I feel a huge disappointment after this match. Look at our chances and what we achieved in this game… we deserved to win, regretted the Italian-German coach of the Red Devils after the meeting. We experienced positive things against a team that was difficult to handle. I heard the chants of the supporters. It’s part of football and part of a match. We could have won so they feel disappointed. I can understand. It’s hard to play even better against the French. They are so powerful, it’s incredible.”
It’s so complicated to defend against the French, they are constantly dangerous
Domenico Tedesco
Despite 20 shots attempted towards Mike Maignan’s goal and a penalty obtained (missed by its captain Tielemans), Belgium, without Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku, crumbled in the face of French efficiency. “France knows how to score when it plays less well, Tedesco conceded. We have to make the most of situations. We had to lead in this match. The fans would have pushed behind us. It’s so complicated to defend against the French, they are constantly dangerous.”
3rd in Group A2 in the Nations League two days from the end, five points behind France (2nd), the Red Devils should not smell the “Final 8” of the Nations League. It will be a question of raising their heads, for honor, during the reception of Italy in November. With or without Tedesco on the bench?
