SOCCER

Belgium were not at their best, but edged past Canada by 1 goal to 0 in World Cup Group F last night.

Michy Batshuayi  scored the only goal of the game in Qatar as Alphonso Davies missed a penalty for Canada.

The other match in that Group was a goalless draw between Morocco and Croatia.


Germany could be facing an early exit after losing 2-1 to Japan in Group E, as Spain hammered Costa Rica 7-0.

Germany and Spain will meet next on Sunday evening.


Today, Switzerland and Cameroon meet in Group G from 10am Irish time.

Elsewhere in that Group, Brazil play Serbia at 7pm.

Brazil are the tournament favourites, but haven't won the competition in 20 years.


In Group H, it's Uruguay versus South Korea at 1 O' Clock - Tottenham's Heung Min Son is fit to play for the Asian side.

The other match in that Group sees Portugal up against Ghana at 4pm.

Cristiano Ronaldo is set to start for the Portuguese days after it was announced he was leaving Manchester United.
