Young Devils are clear after 15 of 15: “We are going to qualify directly for the European Championship” | Red Devils

This is a very impressive group who know each other very well. This is one of our strengths. Again against Scotland. Ben.”

There are chances for the Belgians against Scotland. “We are very close to qualifying,” he realizes Louis Openda. “The Scots are tough opponents, difficult to play against. We beat Turkey with a good mentality and once again we put everything on the three points against Scotland.”
