June 17 – The most unwanted label in football has to be the ‘Golden Generation’ – just ask England circa 2002-06. At Frankfurt’s Deutsche Bank Park, Belgium’s ‘GG’ were keen to prove that the label, which has hung heavily around their necks since 2014, still had some luster left.
It took their opponents, Slovakia, all of six minutes to take the shine off as they capitalised on a Romelu Lukaku miss, with Ivan Schranz scoring his fourth international goal after Lukas Haraslin’s fierce shot was palmed away by Belgium keeper Koen Casteels.
