During yesterday’s press conference of the technical commissioner of the Belgium, Domenico Tedescoto present today’s match againstUkraine (6pm), a curious question was asked about what evolution the national team will have in the history of European football once today’s champions reach the end of their careers.
The thought. “I think the ‘golden generation’ is a term that doesn’t just apply to the current team. I think in general, when people talk about the ‘golden generation’, I don’t know what they mean exactly, but probably the generation of Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku. A lot of players from that ‘golden generation’ have retired. If you look at last year, a lot of players have retired, so now there are new young players in the team.
There are also some young people who are at home – said coach Tedesco – but who will join the national team one day. The ‘golden generation’ never ends. To me it’s just a word, I don’t know, it’s just a word. It’s not as if something is missing or as if something is disappearing. My impression is that we are starting to build something, that’s my impression”, the words taken from The Team.
