World Cup Football

Belgium

Belgium were one of the 13 teams in the inaugural World Cup in 1930.
Belgium goalkeeper Michael Preud'homme abandoned his good luck ritual in USA 94 of wearing a Standard Leige shirt (his first club) under his national jersey because of the heat.
A free-kick goal by Belgian Enzo Scifo was disallowed in the group match against Paraguay on 11 June 1986 because it was an indirect free kick. This was not the only time that a player made such a careless mistake in World Cup finals. Experienced Bulgarian player Hristo Stoichkov also had a goal disallowed for the same reason in a 1994 finals match against Nigeria on 21 June 94.
