"Reaching the semi-finals was a big achievement for a small country like Belgium and I was proud of the players' performance. The players were disappointed because we were close to the final, but the important thing is that they can learn a lot from the five games we played. The tournament encourages us to think about how we can do better and, for the coaching staff, the important thing was to analyse the matches and see what lessons we can learn ahead of the World Cup."

• High levels of technique, pace, game reading; good bench, shrewd substitutions
