Belgium 1-0 Canada - Michy Batshuayi scores first half goal, Davies has penalty saved by Courtois

Roberto Martinez's side are starting to string some passes together now with Canada sitting a bit deeper. Belgium have done very little up to this point.

Johnston's long pass finds Hoilett who runs inside the box. He cuts back and gets a shot away off his left boot but he fires wide. Belgium are struggling to deal with Canada's pace. John Herdman's side have been fearless!

Canada have been dominant so far and look far more hungry to win this game than the Red Devils right now.

Laryea, who is getting plenty of joy down the flank, cuts in and shoots but he drags his effort wide of Courtois' left post. It's been all Canada so far!

The Bayern Munich man is denied by Courtois! The goalkeeper dives low to his right and bats it away! Unbelievable! It was a poor penalty by Davies. It was not properly in the corner.

Carrasco is booked and Canada have the chance to take a shock lead here. Davies will take the penalty...

Was there a handball at the corner? The referee is going to the monitor! Buchanan's driven shot appeared to strike the left wrist of Carrasco looking at the replays!

Hoilett's corner is driven goalwards by Buchanan but Courtois catches the deflected strike.

Laryea surges down the right flank and gets a ball in to David at the near post. His first-time shot deflects off the foot of Dendoncker and goes out for a corner.

Canada are playing with plenty of purpose at the moment and are stroking the ball around confidently in Belgium's half.

The striker gets a shot away from outside the box, it takes a deflection but Borjan is able to catch it.

The national anthems are being played and kick-off is just moments away at Ahmad bin Ali Stadium!

This is arguably the last realistic chance for many of Belgium's best players to win a major international trophy. For Eden Hazard, aged 31, he falls into that category. He will be looking for redemption after a turbulent three and a half seasons at Real Madrid.

Canada are the only team at the World Cup who do not have a new kit. Find out why...

Canada coach John Herdman said "it will be a hell of a ride" as his side prepare for their first World Cup since 1986.

Canada's star player Alphonso Davies is fit enough to be in the starting XI this evening after recovering from a hamstring strain.

The Bayern Munich left-back is expected to play in a more advanced position behind leading striker Jonathan David who plays his club football at Lille.

Romelu Lukaku has a thigh injury which means Michy Batshuayi starts up front for Belgium. The Fenerbahce striker will be flanked by Kevin de Bruyne and Eden Hazard.

Croatia's goalless draw with Morocco earlier today spells a good opportunity for the Red Devils to seize the initiative in Group F tonight.
