Very proud of the Belgian Red Devils!12/07/2021

The Belgian Red Devils made us really proud at the UEFA European Football Championship that just ended last Sunday.

The Belgium-Italy quarter-final was thrilling and could have turned out just as well for Belgium. Too bad, really! The Red Devils hope to meet the “azzuri” again for a rematch! Maybe in November 2022 in Qatar at the FIFA World Cup?

Did you know that eight players of the Belgian team are of African origin? Most of them from the DRC (Michy Batshuayi, Christian Benteke, Dedryck Boyata, Jason Denayer, Romelu Lukaku and Youri Tielemans), but also from Ghana (Jeremy Doku) and from Morocco (Nacer Chadli).

In fact, no less than 25 African nations were represented at this European football Cup, through players of African descent! Unfortunately no players of South African origin… Follow this link to see the complete list :  https://www.goal.com/en-za/lists/euro-2020-which-25-african-nations-are-represented/cbpbhkeirymk1ty7vvy6youy5
