Wilmots: Dragons are on our level

The coach of the Belgian national team Marc Wilmots said in a statement to the media that he can be satisfied, as today's draw decided that his team will fight for the European Championship in Group B with Bosnia and Herzegovina, Andorra, Cyprus, Wales, and Israel.

- I am satisfied because we avoided "big" national teams like Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, and Italy. When I talk about our Group B, I want to say that Bosnia is a good opponent, but in any case, they are on the level of our team – assessed Wilmots, noting that he is aware of the difficulties that the trip to Israel will bring to his team.

Belgium has not participated in the Euro finals since 2000, so qualifying for the European Championship in France in 2016 will be Wilmots' most important goal in the upcoming qualifiers.

- Being first or second in this case is the same thing. The only thing that is important to us now is to qualify for this major competition – said the national coach, adding that the 2016 European Championship without Belgium would be a great disaster for him.
