Belgium’s team is aging, we are too old to stand a chance of winning the world cup- De Bruyne

Kevin De Bruyne, a playmaker for Belgium, acknowledged that his team’s aging roster makes them an outside chance to win the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup.

When comparing the average age of the team, Belgium is the sixth-oldest team in Qatar.

Jan Vertonghen (35) and Toby Alderweireld (33) are two of their most important players in defense. De Bruyne (31), Eden Hazard (31) and Dries Mertens (35) are also in their 30s.

Despite a lackluster and uninspired performance, Belgium defeated Canada 1-0 in their opening World Cup match thanks to a goal from Michy Batshuayi.

De Bruyne, who currently plays for Premier League champions Manchester City, responded to the Guardian’s question about whether Belgium could win the World Cup this year as follows:

“No chance, we are too old.

“I think our chance was in 2018. We have a good team, but it is aging. We lost some key players.

“We have some good new players coming, but they are not at the level other players were in 2018. I see us more as outsiders.”

Natalia Bryant, the late Kobe Bryant’s daughter, received a stalker’s restraining order.

Natalia Bryant, the eldest daughter of the late American basketball great Kobe Bryant, has been given a restraining order against Dwayne Kemp, 32, whom she claims stalked her.

According to Bleacher Report on Friday, Natalia requested a restraining order against Kemp on Monday.

In 2020, Kemp allegedly began stalking Bryant on social media. He sent her messages that suggested they were dating, such as “kissing faces and hearts,” and “threatened to make unwelcome in-person contact with her,” according to Bryant’s lawsuit.

The 19-year-old girl, however, breathed a sigh of relief when, two days after filing, a judge approved her restraining order.

Kemp will have to keep a 200-yard distance between herself and “Bryant, her home, her workplace, her school, her vehicle, and the USC campus.”

According to Natalia, Kemp allegedly sent her a photo of her deceased father in July 2021 along with the note, “Thankful For Him Birthing You, Hopefully We Can Birth Him… ‘Kobe.’”

“In light of all the trauma that she’s already been through with the tragic loss of her father, she doesn’t need something like this,” Natalia’s attorney, Lou Shapiro said.

“Unfortunately, people in the spotlight who are well-known, who have well-known last names, they are more likely subject to harassment like this.”

Kemp allegedly made two attempts to find Bryant on the USC campus, the most recent being in the first few days of November. Both the USC campus police and the Los Angeles Police Department backed Bryant in her pursuit for a restraining order.

Kemp has four delinquent convictions or arrests on his record, and he frequently posts on social media about the weapons and gear he wants to buy.
