Bisnis.com, JAKARTA – Belgian star Kevin De Bruyne was left puzzled after being named man of the match in his side’s win over Canada at the 2022 World Cup on Wednesday, and he “doesn’t know why” he received the trophy .
De Bruyne struggled to fit into the game as Belgium cruised to a 1-0 win thanks to Michy Batshuayi’s first-half goal.
“I don’t think I played a good game. I don’t know why I got a trophy. Maybe because of that name,” the Manchester City midfielder said on Thursday (24/11/2022 ).
“We didn’t play well enough as a team, we didn’t find solutions and we started very badly.
“In the second half when we started pressing them there was more space but I didn’t think we played a good game today, myself included, but at least we found a way to win.”
Canada squandered numerous chances, including a missed penalty from Alphonso Davies, in their first World Cup game since 1986.
Belgium will be next in action against Morocco on Sunday when Canada take on 2018 runners-up Croatia.
