Kevin de Bruyne says Belgium are too old to win World Cup

Kevin de Bruyne says Belgium have no chance to win the World Cup. Manchester City star claims his country have lost key players from the 'Golden Generation' that finished third in Russia four years ago. Belgium beat Canada 1-0 and play Morocco and Croatia next in their quest to qualify for the knockout stages.

Kevin de Bruyne believes Belgium are too old to win the World Cup in Qatar. The average age of the Belgium squad is the sixth oldest. Half of Belgium's starting eleven against Canada was over 30. De Bruhyne thinks Belgium have a good team but they lost some key players and their new players are not at the level they were in 2018.

Kevin de Bruyne thinks Belgium are too old to win the World Cup. De Bruyny was awarded the man of the match against Canada. Manchester City have won the Premier League four times in the last five years.

Belgium went top of Group F after a narrow 1-0 victory against Canada. FIFA won't allow Belgium to wear jerseys with the word 'love' on them at the World Cup. In Mexico 1986 and Russia 2018, Belgium reached the semifinals but lost to Argentina and France. The modern era of supremacy is at risk of changing due to the parity rife at World Cups.
