Belgium will be looking to kick-start their Euro 2024 campaign when they face surprise Group E leaders Romania in Cologne on Saturday evening.

Domenico Tedesco’s side were the favourites to top the group before a ball was kicked but suffered an untimely first defeat under the Italian-German coach as Slovakia beat them 1-0 in the first major shock of the tournament.

Romelu Lukaku saw two goals ruled out – for offside and then handball – while captain Kevin De Bruyne stormed out of a post-match interview to sum up the frustration in the Red Devils camp.

With the best third-placed sides able to qualify for the knockout stages and plenty of football to be played, it’s not quite panic stations yet – but Belgium will be determined to get things back on track.

They look set for another tough test on Saturday evening against a Romania side that showed both their resolute defence and attacking threat to cause an upset of their own against Ukraine, who many were tipping as dark horses, in the opener.

Romania’s 3-0 victory – their first Euros win in 24 years – may have included eye-catching long-range strikes from Nicolae Stanciu and Răzvan Marin, but it was well deserved and leaves them in a commanding position in Group E.

Edward Iordănescu’s side will be full of belief and ready to soak up plenty of Belgian pressure, while Monday’s victory is a warning that they’re more than just a well-structured and hard-working defensive unit.
