Description:
Belgium is a nation divided along largely linguistic lines - French-speaking Walloonia and Flemish-speaking Flanders. The national team is known as the Red Devils and is sometimes seen as the only thing that unites the country. They reached the World Cup semifinals in 1986 before succumbing to the unstoppable Argentina of Diego Maradona. Koninklijke/Royal, which is found in many club names, is an honorary title given by the Belgian royal family for clubs of a certain antiquity (25 years existence before 1958, 35 years existence between 1958 and 1968, 50 years existence after 1968). The traditional giants of the Belgian game are Anderlecht and Club Brugge, with Standard a significant third force.
