Amadou Onana embraces central defence for Belgium

Belgium's experimental three-man defence delivered a solid performance against Croatia. Midfielder Amadou Onana filled the central defensive slot without protest.

Coach Rudi Garcia deployed the three-man system for the match. The formation proved effective in the encounter.

Nathan Ngoy and Arthur Theate received commendation for their roles. Amadou Onana was singled out for his contribution in defence.

Onana, typically a midfielder, stepped into the back line with vigor. He performed the role "with verve" according to match observations.

Amadou Onana stated, “It doesn’t matter which position the coach needs me: I do it.” He added that he is prepared to occupy any role required.

His attitude underscores the squad’s depth. The team’s flexibility was evident throughout the match.
