Coleman wants Belgium reward

WALES manager Chris Coleman (right) has accepted the tag of Brussels underdogs but insists his side expect to get some reward against star-studded Belgium in their Euro 2016 qualifier on Sunday. Belgium have climbed into the top four of the Fifa world rankings, boast world-class talent like Chelsea pair Eden Hazard and Thibaut Courtois and have a squad operating throughout the top European leagues.

The Red Devils, who were quarter-finalists at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, are expected to win Group B comfortably but it is Wales who top the section at the moment after picking up seven points from their opening three games and that start has provided Coleman with confidence that they can spring an upset. "We need to get something from every game, to win our home games and to go to places like Belgium and get something," Coleman said. "We know Belgium are the favourites but we put pressure on ourselves to get something there if we're going to do anything in the group. "But I think it's a great pressure to have and the type of pressure you want."
