BRUSSELS (Reuters) - An inexperienced Belgium beat Burkina Faso 3-0 in a friendly on Tuesday, overcoming a poor start and requiring an alert keeper as coach Roberto Martinez tested options ahead of the World Cup.
Los suplentes de Bélgica se reivindicaron este martes ante su público en Bruselas, endosándole un 3-0 a la humilde Burkina Faso en un amistoso de preparación para el Mundial de Qatar que alejó el recuerdo del insulso empate cosechado el sábado en Dublín frente a la modesta Irlanda. Si el colegiado neerlandés hubiera señalado penalti cuando en el minuto 3 el guardameta local Sels derribó en el área belga a Faissal Ouattara, quizá el primer partido de la historia de Burkina Faso en Europa hubiera tenido un desenlace más afable para los africanos.

The Republic of Ireland must maintain their unbeaten run and build up more confidence within the squad after a difficult start under Stephen Kenny, says former international Ray Houghton.
Stephen Kenny will have learned a lot from Ireland's impressive 2-2 draw with Belgium on Saturday, however, one thing that surely stood out from the clash with the world number one-ranked side was the importance of continuity in the team.
Egan has also praised the impact that Ogbene has had on the dressing room since his arrival to the Ireland set-up.
Republic of Ireland boss Stephen Kenny has admitted he could not have expected Chiedozie Ogbene to have made such a spectacular start to his international career.
Substitute Alan Browne ensured the Republic of Ireland’s big day did not end in defeat as his late equaliser secured a creditable draw against world number one side Belgium.
