Belgium’s New Boss Van Bommel Relishing Clash with Zidane
- Belgium coach Mark van Bommel prepares for Monday's Nations League match in Brussels against France, coached by Zinedine Zidane, though France captain Kylian Mbappe will miss the fixture.
- Following Friday's 2-0 victory over Italy in Group A1, Van Bommel now enters his second competitive match; Zidane's France opened with a 1-0 win in Turkey on Friday.
- Mbappe suffered a left knee hyperextension and has returned to Real Madrid for treatment. "I think it's a shame that Mbappe isn't there, because you always want to have the best footballers playing against you," Van Bommel said.
- During a Sunday press conference, Van Bommel outlined his tactical philosophy: "I started last Monday by emphasising intensity and willingness to work. The idea has to remain the same."
- On Thursday, Van Bommel watched his son Ruben debut for the Netherlands and set up a dramatic equalizer against Germany in Amsterdam. "As a father, you see your son make his debut for the Netherlands, that is already something special," he told reporters.
