The Belgian national team did not face serious opposition in the qualifying round for the 2020 European Football Championship. Having secured third place in the 2018 World Cup, Belgians won all nine games played in the qualifiers, and in case of a victory against Cyprus, will collect the maximum number of points - 30. Team leader Eden Hazard is convinced that his team is even stronger compared to the one that played in the World Cup two years ago. "We are more experienced than we were in the 2018 World Cup, and we also had more time to understand the coach's philosophy. We know each other well, and we also have capable young players. I think we are now even stronger. We now have a winning mentality, which we lacked a bit in the last tournaments," Hazard said in a conversation with journalists. The forward also highlighted the favorites of the upcoming championship, including his national team. "It is obvious that Belgium is among the favorites of the European Championship, but we are certainly not alone. France, Italy, Spain, England will be very serious competitors," added the Belgian.
