Twelve years after their last World Cup appearance, Belgium is on the verge of qualifying for Brazil. A victory against Scotland tonight would bring the Belgians one step closer to Rio. The Red Devils are set to face Scotland in the European zone qualifiers for the 2014 World Cup in Glasgow.
Despite the turbulence surrounding Marouane Fellaini’s transfer to Manchester United at the end of the transfer window, the Belgian international of Moroccan origin is focused on the upcoming match. In comments reported by RTL, the newly-signed Manchester United player emphasized the importance of the game against Scotland.
“Scotland is the most important. Now, my transfer is put aside for Scotland. We have three games left. We know it’s going to be difficult with their supporters, and they have had two very good matches recently. But we have the players to win. We have physical players, warriors. We have everything to win the match, but we know it’s going to be difficult,” warned the Belgian-Moroccan midfielder.
