Asked after the full time whistle if Belgium needed a new coach after the already under-fire Wilmots failed to turn the match around, ​Courtois told Rtbf: “This was an opportunity we may not get again. I gave him my opinion in the dressing room. He has to make his own decision.”

He added: “I pointed the finger where it had to be put after the game. We have to remain intelligent. We’re young and we’re going to still spend a lot of time together. But it’s a disappointment because we had a golden chance to go to the final.”

When told of Courtois’ comments, he blamed Chelsea’s poor form last season for the goalkeeper’s comments: “Courtois was frustrated after a poor season with Chelsea. His dream of winning a trophy is gone.”
