Now that Belgium managed to get full credit for murdering Patrice Lumumba, it’s time for the Belgians to take revenge on the Spanish Sack of Antwerp in 1576, when murderous Spaniards massacred the people of lovely city as part of the Eighty Years War. At least 7,000 people were killed and possibly up to 18,000. That’s a lot for the late 1500s. The Spanish might be pretty inoffensive by today’s context and unlike most nations, it has a leader that a liberal can like, which is nice. So if the Spanish wins, OK. But certainly Spain has offended Belgium a lot more than the other way around.

As for the game, I have no idea nor do I particularly care.
