Spain’s stingy defense faces Belgium’s red-hot attack as the World Cup quarterfinal round pits an impenetrable wall against a nearly unstoppable offense. Spain, coming off a 91st-minute Mikel Merino winner over Portugal, has still yet to concede a goal in the tournament, becoming the first team to reach this stage without allowing a goal since Italy in 1990. La Roja is aiming to return to the semifinals for the first time since their 2010 title run, having failed to advance past the Round of 16 in the two tournaments since.
Belgium, on the other hand, arrives on a wave of momentum after routing the United States 4-1 in the Round of 16, with Charles De Ketelaere netting twice and Romelu Lukaku and Hans Vanaken adding goals. The Red Devils have tallied at least three goals in three consecutive matches and sit third in the tournament with a total of 13, trailing only France and Argentina, who have 14 apiece. It’s Belgium’s first quarterfinal appearance since their 2018 run ended with a third-place finish, and they’re eager to step closer to a first-ever World Cup title. Yet history isn’t on Belgium’s side; Spain has won all five prior meetings between the two nations, including a 5-0 win in 2009 World Cup qualifying.
Watch for Spain’s Mikel Oyarzabal (four goals) and Lamine Yamal, and Belgium’s Romelu Lukaku (three goals) and Leandro Trossard, as both sides’ goalkeepers—Unai Simón and Thibaut Courtois—have been busy between the posts.
