HUNGARY - BELGIUM

Some comments before the match:

1. Belgium is the worst possibility the Hungarians could have chosen. I think Croatia and England would be much easier teams than Belgium.

2. Belgium has the second expensive team in EU tournament (second to Spain only). In fact, when they lost to Italy, people think that they are weak. I don't know whether they are confident enough to loose to Italy with an intention. But it turned out good for them because Hungary is much better than Spain.

3. I remember that Germany team of Beckenbauer lost the first match to the East Germany to avoid meeting Netherlands early.

4. I guess the Hungarians do not an ambition to go high on this EU. They have entered the knock-out stage, having reached the objective. So they don't think about to meet with whom in the next round. So if they can beat or make tie with the Portuguese by a good luck, they will take that chance.

5. I hope that they have that kind of attitude to today's match. Who knows, they might be lucky again. I am a little bit skeptical about distant shootings. Coutois is not that easy guy for doing that.

The Belgium's middle-fielders are extremely strong.

Let us see what happens.
