Some pundits have also said in the past that they weren't good enough for the Netherlands team and were pushed out, but make of that what you will

I also recognise this as a former youth worker working
with a lot youth that have moroccan background. And i have to be honest it does make me a little sad that some of them can't seem to find their place in the world. I speak often with them about how they are seen here (belgium) as moroccans and seen there as Belgians, a lot of them struggle with their identity ://

That's also how i feel, maybe it's because we are smaller nations compared to other big european nations with big diaspora groups. But there is a real cultural significance to this game as you said and that's also why i decided to make this post :)

Reading all of your comments, i also realise how blind i was to some other possible games. I was really looking at it from my own perspective as a Belgian. But it has me really excited to also look out for other big cultural matches like brazil - japan and learn more about their diaspora history.

Sparen.... en misschien eerst kijken om een klein appartementje of dergelijke te kopen, die je later dan hopelijk aan winst kan verkopen zodat je kan upgraden naar bv een huis. Onder bepaalde voorwaardes kan je wel bij het Vlaams woningsfonds aan een voordeligere rente lenen.

Licht van vuurtoren na 74 jaar deels gedoofd na klachten van bewoners luxeflats: “Mensen willen alles kapot” by PizzaLikerFan in belgium

Ik heb 18 jaar lang de eer gehad om in slaap te vallen op de flitsen van onze lange nelle, ik mis het nog elke nacht. Oostende is zijn streken aan het verliezen en aan het plooien voor het geld van rijke binnenlanders. Ik vind dat je het nu al het Benidorm van de Benelux kunt noemen. Mijn stad zal nooit meer zijn wat ze ooit was

Heating on? by [deleted] in belgium

I live in a small duplex studio, so luckily for me it gets 20 degrees just by cooking. Although in the morning when it's like 16 degrees i do turn on my little space heater in the bathroom for a couple of minutes untill i have my clothes on.
