Belgium's head coach Rudi Garcia expressed disappointment following the team's 2-1 defeat to Spain in the 2026 World Cup. He cited two significant mistakes as the primary reasons for the loss, despite Charles De Ketelaere's goal that equalized after Fabian Ruiz's opening goal for Spain.
Garcia lamented the errors made by his players, particularly noting injuries that affected key players like Youri Tielemans and Thibaut Courtois during the match. Kevin De Bruyne was also unable to complete the game due to injury.
