We can't make a fool of ourselves at the EC, so I think the majority of the Belgians isn't too sad we're not there :p

If you ask me their are not that many soccer fans in Belgium, sad for the national team though the last two years there were like less than 1.000 supporters of the team at home..


Belgians are crazy about Cycling (you see them like everywhere like Tour De France) as the Dutch are about Soccer =p.


 Well, that's because in cycling, we dominate a lot of the races (not the 3 week races though), and we have strong teams.

 

In football (grrr :p), we are more of a "meh, don't care", because our national team keeps going "oh, we're improving" when the results are worse and worse.  And the youngsters they have now, should've been able to perform quite well.  Let's see how they do in the WC qualifiers.  They said they would be ready for some good football then... 


And that only because the National -21 team did it well at the European Cup in Holland ^^''.

If I am right Austria had a great -21 National team like 2 years ago and we really can't say they are playing very well now...but maybe we will see more of them soon :)...
