Belgium, its star Eden Hazard, ready for the match, and Yannick Carrasco, pointing to the starting line, facing his first 'final' in group E Euro 2016 no margin for error against the ropes for his loss to Italy and forced to win this Saturday to Ireland with one point.

No other valid result for Belgium victory. Even the tie, waiting to be measured in the last meeting with Sweden, seems a sufficient marker for directing combined Marc Wilmots, supported the criticism after the 2-0 with Italy and aware that his team goes all in mourning tomorrow.

Kevin de Bruyne pending, already trained with the group, but which the coach himself has said that we must be careful with his recovery from a sore hamstring, and his-and Hazard provision has overcome a sore muscle and a coup, Belgium knows the only way to eighth is victory.

Hazard will start in the middle point, while Kevin de Bruyne is doubtful for the lineup. Their presence in the eleven will depend on if you are already a hundred percent of his ailment. The alternative is Dries Mertens, the speedy end of Naples and also a guarantee of overflow and depth for the Belgian national team.

In the other band will enter Yannick Carrasco. The dominating football player Atletico Madrid, substitute in the first match for his recent recovery from a sore ankle suffered in the final of the Champions League on May 28, played fifteen minutes against Italy and is now in the Wilmots eleven.

To their credit, their individualities, the talent of many of his players from the goal, with Thibaut Courtois, or defense, with Thomas Vermaelen and Toby Alderweireld, until the offensive end, with said Carrasco, Hazard, De Bruyne or Mertens, its obvious superiority in quality and precedents against Ireland, with which it does not lose half a century since May 1966.


Since then, he has scored two wins, both by only one goal difference and four draws against the rival, always very balanced duels, although a point now would be little to Belgium, absent from the final stages of the European Championship the last sixteen years and need to reaffirm their individualities with quick success.

That draw put it in an uncertain situation, but promising time, depending on the outcome of this Saturday. If you win, will an almost decisive step towards the knockout stages, if still tied ahead of Belgium and if you lose it all will play against Italy.
