However, taking into account that he is a fundamental piece for his coach, Faruk Hadzibegic, your appearance is practically safe in the other official match that remains for the Balkans (next Tuesday against Luxembourg at 8:45 p.m. in the same stadium).

Carrasco: Belgium drew 1-1 with Ivory Coast in a friendly played on Thursday at the King Baudouin stadium in Brussels and the mattress winger did not play (he was not even called up), so everything indicates that it was reserved for the Nations League matches that Roberto Martínez's will play versus England (tomorrow at 6:00 p.m. at Wembley) and Iceland (Wednesday at 8:45 p.m. in Reykjavik).
