No excuses for Belgium to not at least make the semis. I have no idea what his job security is but does Belgium's coach get fired if they don't make the semis? The bottom half of the draw is loaded. The top, not so much. Funny that Italy wins the group and draws Spain while Belgium finishes second and gets Hungary, but that's the way it goes sometimes. In addition to winning the H2H match, the winner of Italy/Spain could have a road of Germany, France/England and then Belgium to win the title. the bottom half has won 20 major titles (11 world cup, 9 euro). the top half has won zero.
