Belgium's American dream ends
The Belgian team, hindered by numerous injuries, fought until the end but ultimately lost to a superior Spanish team. The match was marked by an error from Senne Lammens that led to the decisive goal.
Romelu Lukaku's words about similarities with the 2018 World Cup in Brazil resonated as the team took to the field at the SoFi Stadium. The Belgians were without Amadou Onana and Youri Tielemans, but Hans Vanaken stepped in alongside Kevin De Bruyne and Raskin.
The Spanish team, known as La Roja, dominated the match, with Olmo and Ruiz putting on a show. Despite being down, the Belgians equalized through a goal from Charles De Ketelaere, set up by De Bruyne and Castagne.
