Belgium Must Overcome Mental Barrier-Martinez

Share

Belgium must overcome a mental barrier if they are to win this summer’s World Cup, says manager Roberto Martinez.
They have one of the most talented squads in Russia, containing Premier League stars such as Kevin de Bruyne, Eden Hazard and Romelu Lukaku.
However, Belgium – who will face England in Group G – lost to Wales in the last eight of the Euro 2016 and Argentina in the World Cup quarter-finals in 2014.
“We need to learn how to be a winning team,” Martinez said in a new book Football 2.0: How The World’s Best Play The Modern Game.
“We’ve got exceptional talent, but talent on its own is not enough to win a major tournament. We’ve never had the direction before.”
