Beaten by Brazil in 2018 in the quarterfinals, Belgium is eliminated in the first round of the world tournament, despite this beautiful generation of footballers who shine in the most elite clubs of Europe. Finished in third place in Group F, with only 4 small points in three games, the Red Devils left the world by the small door. A disappointment for the band (Thibault Courtois, Hazard, Lukaku, De Bruyne, Meunier and Carasco), who can not even reach the round of 16, after this draw (0-0) against Croatia.

The other disappointment of the day took place at the Khalif International stadium where Japan defeated the 2010 world champion (Spain), by 2 goals to 1, the same score against the Germans. The blue samurai have just written a new page of history in the finals of the world cup by winning against two former world champions to take the first place in group E. It is a huge surprise in this vint-second edition of the World Cup. The Spaniards led from the first quarter of an hour on a goal of Alvaro Morata (12th). In the second half, right from the start, Ritsu Doan, the 24-year-old striker from Freiburg, who had already scored against Germany, restored the balance for the Japanese (48th). Six minutes later, Ao Tanaka, attacking midfielder of Dusseldorf, gave the advantage to the country of the rising sun (54th). This score of 2 goals to 1 did not move until the final whistle.

Japan took the first place in the group and Spain, despite this surprise defeat, obtained its ticket for the eighth round, thanks to a better goal difference. Despite its large victory (4-2), against Costa Rica, Germany is out of the world in the first round, as was the case in 2018, in Russia.
