Sunday’s third and final fixture sees Hungary and Belgium do battle for the right to take on Wales in the Euro 2016 quarter-finals.

Having bounced back from an opening loss to Italy with wins over Republic of Ireland and Sweden, Belgium are regarded as favourites for the top half of the draw.

The Red Devils were placed fourth for shots on goal over the group stages, though found the net on just four occasions with big-hitters Kevin de Bruyne and Eden Hazard yet to open their accounts in the tournament.

Bernd Storck’s side will be no pushovers, though. Despite firing far less attempts than their opponents across the first three matches (35 to 56), Hungary registered just one attempt on target fewer, firing 16 to Belgium’s 17.

Joint-top scorers with Wales for the group stages, their three-goal salvo against Portugal last time out certainly suggests this evening’s match could be tighter than many expect.

    No deflection, nothing. Just a pass to his teammate who slotted it in the net.

    "A player will be credited with a goal assist when he delivers/plays the final pass, cross, header or shot which leads to the goal being scored."

      So it counts?

        I don't see why it shouldn't

          This.

      No assist is given to a player who creates his own goalscoring opportunity (e.g. solo run/dribble).

        Referring to the goal scorer himself.

          Hmm, maybe. Hope it gets added, but doubt it will be now...

      2. Slam
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Doesn't this just clarify Hazard wouldn't have assisted himself?

      3. Slam
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        " to a player who creates his own goalscoring opportunity"
        Surely they are talking about Hazard in this case?

    Everyone just relax. The assist will be added.

    I was out at the Dubs game while Germany were playing

    Why does Hummels not get an assist? Looks like he gets the last touch before Draxler scores. Haven't seen a good quality highlight of it.

    1. KingNidge
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 8 months ago

      Must have got a touch off the defender

    2. d1sable

      He headed it into the defender who deflected it into draxler

    Was ranked 616 before the round of 16 started, gonna end up at 10k+ after tomorrow's games. Think I'm going to delete my team. This game is ridiculous. Why did Ozil miss that penalty? How did France concede vs one of the worst teams ever? Sold Grizeman after MD3, why did he score now? Had Boateng, but sold him in the last minute for Dier, ofc he scored.

    1. KingNidge

      McDonald's game is terrible game. There is no chance they update assist for this unfortunately

      1. Sanguinista
        • 13 Years
        9 years, 8 months ago

        Indeed. Hindsight aside, it was the right call to cap KDB. Hit the crossbar, had 6 shots in the first half and 2 assists (1 of which isn't given)! My ML rival had Griezz captain & Hazzy both of which gave him 31 points in a combined space of 5 mins. Sigh 🙁

  14. ryacoo

    BBC know it's a KDB assist: "Goal! Hungary 0, Belgium 3. Eden Hazard (Belgium) right footed shot from outside the box to the bottom right corner. Assisted by Kevin De Bruyne following a fast break."

    1. JÆKS ⭐
      • 11 Years

      Is it not given? Because it was a clear assist.....

    Hazard would not have scored without KDB pass and all reports I have read credit with assist! Surely must be added.

      Maybe, but everyone moaning about it isn't going to get it added any faster.

            Coming on British websites... posting non-English comments...
            No wonder the Brits vote 'out'.

    As a KDB owner and non captainer I don't care if the assist gets added or not. It makes my cap look better if it doesn't or I get some points if it does. Meh

      Comment on livescore.com

      80' Kevin de Bruyne provided the assist for the goal.
      80' G O O O A A A L - Eden Hazard scores.

        Livescore struggle to get lineups correct.

    Gomez captain plus De Bruyne and Hazard and Munsier. Was ranked 1113, hopeful of a big jump. Dier, Walker Alli and Kane tomorrow

    49 with De Gea, Juanfran and Nolito to go

    55 with the same 3 if they add De Bruyne (C) assist

        41 I think, maybe 43 if I'm adding it up wrong

    I don't think the assist will be added ... Arrrghhh. I don't even know how KDB didn't score and now they rob us off this clear assist.

      Why don't you think it will be added Jazz?

      If someone goes on a 80m solo run from a 1m pass, should it be an assist?

    3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

      it is an "assist" according to what we are used to

      but this game is different

      No assist is given to a player who creates his own goalscoring opportunity (e.g. solo run/dribble).

        however trying to understand what is a solo run/dribble is anyones guess

        How much of a dribble does this count for, does he just have to beat one man? Is it a 10+ yard run?

        nobody knows

      Seems they have a different view to awarding assists than FPL. I lost out with Hummels, I'm sure that would be FPL assist.
