Rudi Garcia (Belgium's coach) had some interesting words after the game...
FR (original) "On connaît ces équipes-là, elles perdent leur structure tactique vers la fin du match. On savait aussi qu'à 2-0, ils feraient tout pour protéger leur but, ce qui est à mon avis une grave erreur. Rappelez-moi, quand on mènera 2-0, de ne pas faire ça! Parce que quand vous prenez un but comme ils l'ont pris à 2-1, le match a changé d'âme. On a été capables d'égaliser. C'était plutôt bien de marquer dans le temps additionnel sur un penalty archi justifié."
EN (translated) "We know these kinds of teams, they lose their tactical structure towards the end of the match. We also knew that once they were 2-0 up, they would do everything to protect their lead, which in my opinion is a serious mistake. Remind me, when we’re leading 2-0, not to do that! Because when you concede a goal like they did at 2-1, the whole nature of the game changes. We were able to equalise, and it was very satisfying to score in stoppage time from a completely justified penalty."
The same Rudi Garcia who has lost three Ligue 1 matches after being 2-0 up in the 21st century, more than any other coach in that period 🤡
