Ireland-Belgium is behind us. Everyone agrees that it was a very weak game of football. Yet analyst Wim De Coninck saw three bright spots in Domenico Tedesco’s troops.
Trossard shows himself
For example, Leandro Trossard was the most threatening Red Devil in the first half. There was unfairly little talk about the player who is doing well at Arsenal. “In the first half, all the initiative came from Leandro Trossard. You saw that he is someone who is in shape and feels good.”
At the back, De Coninck saw that Koni De Winter certainly did not make the cut. He played soberly and had a solid debut. I didn’t think Koni De Winter’s first performance was bad either. We have already seen other debutants,” he said Sporza.
De Winter, Sels and Meunier
Matz Sels also played well, having previously impressed against Sweden. He saved a penalty, but the Nottingham Forest goalkeeper exudes a lot of confidence. Thomas Meunier’s substitute was also good. He brings a serious injection of quality in terms of footballing ability as a right wing defender.
“Furthermore, Thomas Meunier showed that he is an international again. He was good, radiated confidence and experience. Matz Sels also scored points with that crucial penalty save,” De Coninck said.
It remains to be seen whether this foursome has also scored points with the national coach.
