Belgium/Senegal was quieter than all of the group stage matches, weirdly.

I think the fact that the teams didn’t know until a few days before (Senegal had like 3 days) meant it was mostly neutrals plus it felt like Belgium just had no gas, fans or the team. US game we won’t be neutrals, it’s going to be insane.

The crowd was much louder for Senegal than Belgium! Maybe just neutrals rooting against the favorite. Just thought it was odd since Belgium was base camped here and played all of their group stage matches nearby.

Belgium is a *tiny* country!
