Carrasco is getting a mercing on that left. If that's rashford next.week, Belgium are going to find it a tough 90.

Tale of two faces for Belgium. With the ball they look scary, without it they look rubbish

Fair play to hazard. Could have gone down and had the keeper sent off, stays on his feet and slots home

from what I've seen in this second half, Belgium scoring their goals in the first half has discouraged Tunisia from parking the bus the way they did against England. Tunisia having to be more positive has left them looking vulnerable at the back. The only surprising thing, for me, is that Belgium haven't scored more than 4 goals..... although they might yet end up scoring 6

Encouraging for England that Tunisia have had opportunities to score in this second half, though

Half of Brussels now on the street. Making a right row. If they celebrate being Tunisia like this, what happens if they win it

I feel that if Ochoa were to let his hair run loose it would have something of a Malinga like quality to it.
