Belgium Coach Marc Wilmots said he “respects Italy, but I don’t like losing” even in tomorrow’s friendly.
It kicks off in Brussels on Friday at 19.45 GMT.
“I respect Italy and the Italians, especially as there are so many living here in Belgium, but I want my players to be concentrated. I really don’t like losing,” said Wilmots in a Press conference.
“Playing on home turf there is even more of a need for us to attack and make a good impression.
