And just when you think you have seen the best of comebacks another just erupts and it happened in a big matchday. In football nearly is nowhere if you have the opportunity to take off your opponent don’t sleep on it.
Sorry if my title made you believe I was going to discuss the Red cross organization giving treatments to Manchester United, lol, actually the Switzerland national football team are called the red crosses and the Belgium national side are referred to as the red devils, I guess that settles the ideal behind the title of my moan-day article.
Before the encounter
This is how this were looking, Switzerland needed to beat Belgium at least two nil, or a two goal margin score to qualify for the next year showdown in Portugal while Belgium would be comfortable with a draw to seal their qualification.
it might interest you to know that Belgium last lost a game during the world cup semi-finalsn against current world cup winners France.
Matchday, 18. Nov 2018, 20:45
Things happened fast for Belgium and they found themselves in front just 17 minutes into the game, with thorgan hazard scoring a brace. The Swiss side who were initially hoping for a two-goal win now stands before Mount Everest.
But Switzerland were not to be tormented they got a goal back nine minutes later and hopes were restored, they did have to wait too long to get their second and third through their forward Haris Seferovic. Halftime ended 3-2 in favour of Switzerland.
The crosses were not yet done with the red devils and in second half it was the Liverpool man Xherdan Shaqiri who send a beautiful powerful cross into Belgium goal to find the head of Elvedi, so nodded home Switzerland’s fourth of the night before the hero of the night Seferovic got his hat trick to put the final nail on the coffin to end the game 5-2.

This means that Switzerland wins the league and get promoted and will be in Portugal next year for the semi-finals leaving Belgium to moan in disbelieve.
It was indeed a night coach Martinez team and the entire citizen of will want to forget, what a way to lose a bird already at hand and let it fly to your neighbour’s gate.
My words for Belgium team

☆keep your heads high and fight like champions that you are.
