Belgium's national team has a new head coach - 43-year-old Roberto Martinez, who was appointed last season after being released from Liverpool's "Everton" club. It is worth noting that after losing the 2016 European Championship quarter-final match against Wales, the head coach of the Belgian national team, Marc Wilmots, stepped down from his position. Among the possible candidates to take over the reins of the Belgian team were Louis van Gaal and Guus Hiddink, but the country's federation signed a contract with a specialist from Spain. R. Martinez has led the "Everton" team for the last three years, and before that he has managed the "Wigan Athletic" and "Swansea City" teams. In the upcoming 2018 World Cup qualifiers, Belgium will compete against Bosnia and Herzegovina, Greece, Estonia, Cyprus, and Gibraltar.
