Wilmots to blame - Wales loss shows Belgium's 'golden generation' needs a better coach

All of Belgium will wonder what went wrong. Their team came into the game against Wales as big favourites, ranked second in the world and with high hopes of advancing in what was almost a home match played just over the border in Lille. But once again, their much-hyped "golden generation" failed to deliver.
Amid the pre-match fun in the centre of Lille on Friday, one fan wore a shirt with "Mexico '86" printed on the back. That was the last time the Red Devils were in the final four of a major tournament and that fact that they are not there again at France 2016 is a damning indictment on the coach and also the best bunch of players this nation has ever had.
It had all started so well. Roma's Radja Nainggolan thumped an unstoppable drive into the top corner after 13 minutes and Wales' worst nightmare had turned into reality. Their coach, Chris Coleman, admitted afterwards, that it was the scenario he had most feared. And his side were on the rocks.
