AL RAYYAN, Qatar—Kevin De Bruyne threw his hands up in disgust as another pass went astray. Eden Hazard was easily knocked off the ball. Michy Batshuayi was hauled off by his angry coach after a lazy flick to no one at all. with a 1-0 victory over Canada on Wednesday.
“No, I don’t think I played a great game,” a miserable-looking De Bruyne said after being told of his award. “I don’t know why I got the trophy—maybe it’s because of my name.” It split the defense and Batshuayi ran through, letting the ball bounce twice before guiding a left-footed finish into the far corner.Martinez said it was his team’s worst performance on a technical level since he took charge more than six years ago.There were six players in their 30s in Belgium’s starting lineup, four of them having accrued more than 100 international appearances.
