Belgium defender Jan Vertonghen tried to look on the bright side after a 2-0 defeat to Italy. “We showed we are a good team.”
The Red Devils went very close with a Romelu Lukaku counter, but otherwise rarely troubled Gigi Buffon.
“This is a disappointing result. However, we did not play badly,” insisted the defender.
“We knew how Italy were going to play and anticipated their moves. They only really had one chance and it was enough.
