Belgium are not in “crisis mode” ahead of their crucial World Cup match against Croatia despite rumours of infighting and division in the squad, full-back Timothy Castagne said on Wednesday. The world’s second-ranked side have to win at the Ahmad Bin Ali Stadium on Thursday to be sure of reaching the Last 16 after a surprising 0-2 loss to Morocco. Belgium have reached at least the quarter-finals at each of the past four major tournaments, but have struggled in Qatar, labouring to a 1-0 win over Canada in their opener.
