Watch Belgium Vs. England Live Stream: 2018 FIFA World Cup 3rd Place Start Time, Preview, How To Watch Online
England and Belgium will meet for the second time in the 2018 FIFA World Cup on Saturday, and this game will be only slightly less meaningless than the first matchup on June 29 when the Belgians, per Sky Sports, managed a 1-0 victory in a match that featured largely a second-string lineup for both teams. In the first meeting, both teams had already qualified for the knockout stage out of Group G. But on Saturday, the two teams meet again with nothing more than third place on the line, in the World Cup consolation match that will live stream from Saint Petersburg.
Belgium were eliminated by France in the World Cup semifinal, while England blew a 1-0 halftime lead to lose 2-1 to Croatia, as the Daily Mail reported, on a goal in extra time by Mario Mandzukic.

England’s Harry Kane still leads the World Cup Golden Boot race with six goals, despite not taking a shot on target in his last four hours and 33 minutes on the pitch, Sky Sports reports. Belgium’s Romelu Lukaku is two goals behind Kane, but whether Belgium Manager Robert Martinez will choose to start Lukaku in the consolation game is unclear.
While France will compete for their second World Cup title and Croatia their first in the final on Sunday, England and Belgium must be content to battle it out for the consolation prize of third place; a game that England Manager Gareth Southgate says that his team will approach with pride.
“The honest thing is it’s not a game any team wants to play in,” Southgate told the BBC. “We have two days to prepare. We will want to give a performance of huge pride. There’s no question about that. It’s always there every time we wear the shirt of our national team, we want to play with pride, we want to play well and win.”
