    Hazard so bright, bursting with ideas, the speed of his feet are matched only by his speed of thought.

    As opposed to a player who uses his feet and then thinks about what he's going to do with them...

    Anyone else think de Bruyne is very overrated? I've never seen anything special with him.

    Never been overly impressed with him myself, though I can't say I've seen him play more than a handful of times

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Quality of the crosses by Belgium is horrendous.

    Kompany has been brutal for Belgium. What's happened to him?

    There's a Vincent Kompany special. A needless tackle in an area where the opposing player is going nowhere which costs him a yellow card.

    These belgian players need to realise that they cant stand in the way of freedom.
    Freedom will score a goal and win out in the end.

    Just in. Come on USA - Love to see them win 2-0.

    Prob said before but that de Brun guy is the image of Prince Harry. Tried to watch a Belgium game twice before but I was bored. On the other hand, I've really enjoyed all the US matches so far. They're not the best players but they never give up.

    Belgium are interesting to me, a bit like Riquelme used to be.

    He was so good, so incisive, and so clinical... and made it look effortless

    Belgium are so average, so blunt, and so toothless... and yet they too, make it look truly effortless.

    They sorted it before a riot broke out, don't worry!

    Another view. Great to see so many people there even if they are ruining the grass my bears have to use on the way to the superbowl this year :(

    I know, just think of all the passes Hayward and Shields should be catching from Cutler this season. The field better not get too cut up.

    They mentioned on the BBC commentary that the Americans have done more than four times the travelling than the Belgians during the World Cup. Could play a factor in the second half.

    Origi looks very composed for a lad with so little senior experience - 45 first team appearances for Lille

    Also trivia fact

    On 25 June 2014, a baby dolphin at the Boudewijn Seapark in Bruges, Belgium was baptised "Origi" in his honour after having scored the winning goal against Russia during their group stage match at the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
