Watch Spain vs Belgium Live: TV Channel, Streaming Options, and Kickoff Time for World Cup Quarterfinal
Spain’s solid defense is about to test Belgium’s powerful offense in an intense World Cup quarterfinal showdown. Spain earned their spot with a last-minute goal from Mikel Merino against Portugal and remain the only team yet to concede a goal this tournament, a feat unseen since Italy’s 1990 run. They aim to reach the semifinals for the first time since winning the title in 2010, after falling short in the last two editions.
Belgium comes into this match full of confidence following a dominant 4-1 win over the United States in the Round of 16. Charles De Ketelaere scored twice, while Romelu Lukaku and Hans Vanaken each contributed a goal. The Red Devils have netted at least three goals in their past three games, ranking third in total goals scored with 13, just behind France and Argentina.
This marks Belgium’s first quarterfinal since finishing third in 2018, as they chase their first-ever World Cup trophy. Yet, history favors Spain, who have beaten Belgium in all five previous encounters, including a 5-0 thrashing during 2009 World Cup qualifiers.
Watch out for Spain’s Mikel Oyarzabal, who has scored four times, and rising star Lamine Yamal. Belgium’s attack centers on Lukaku, who has three goals, and Leandro Trossard. Goalkeepers Unai Simon for Spain and Thibaut Courtois for Belgium will likely face plenty of action.
