    I don't understand how 1 Belgian player can penetrate into the box with 5 US defenders, and no defender clears it.

    To scared of a penalty I assume. They should stop being so damn conservative

    You had a man on the left for a better pass Clint. You WILL NOT beat Courtois from that far out.

    Howard is a beast.

    Not sure of that Wondo sub.

    Howard has had some good saves but most of them are just due to bad finishes.

    Agreed. Belgium's finishing leaves a lot to be desired.

    One of the best perhaps, but there's somebody called Manuel Neuer.

    The guy in goal for Belgium is good but I would have dusted off Jean-Marie Pfaff for this one! ;)

    Has he even touched the ball this half?

    The Belgians have a weak offensive team. That was known. Their strength is with their defenders.

    Not only has Belgium been terrible at finishing, they dont know how to deliver corners as well.

    Every corner of theirs has hit the first man.
