Shafaqna English- Courtois, Belgium’s keeper, was in tears while seated on the bench with a leg problem in the second half of their World Cup last-eight clash with Spain on Friday(10 Jul 2026).
Yet after his side’s 2–1 defeat, the 34-year-old tried to comfort his replacement Senne Lammens, who had come on in the 71st minute but failed to handle Cubarsi’s low shot, allowing Spain’s substitute Mikel Merino to net the winner in the 86th minute.
