"I am very satisfied with the players, they showed my personality and the right spirit was very difficult tonight.

Destamp, who is aiming to become the only team in Germany's Franz Beckenbauer and Mario Zagaro in Brazil, said, "In the counter attack we had to take a little more chance, congratulations to the players and staff.

"Together for 49 days, it is a lot of things, difficult things, group stages, that is the merit of anyone.

Goalscorer Umtiti told that victory came behind the work of the whole team.

"Many pride", the defender said. "We did our best ... I played a good game but I sent a good game, I worked in 1998, but today I finished work and finally achieved my goal, I am very happy There.

Belgian coach Roberto Martinez was proud of the players despite defeat.

"Unfortunately for us the difference was a dead ball situation, the game is very close, very tight, it will be decided if there is luck before the goal," the Spanish said.

"I felt that the attitudes of the players were great, but I could not hear anything anymore, the players gave everything and I went back to the game to the end"
