Pre-match analysis
How New Zealand vs Belgium sets up
🇳🇿New Zealand
New Zealand will look to set the tempo, control the opening exchanges, and build through midfield and wide pressure.
🇧🇪Belgium
Belgium will aim to stay compact, frustrate the press, and threaten on quick transitions and set pieces.
What to watch: the first duel after every turnover, set-piece quality at both ends, and which manager blinks first on substitutions as the game opens up.
