Belgium lost to France in the semifinal clash of the World Cup on Tuesday. A 51st minute header by Samuel Umtiti was enough for the French side to reach the final of the World Cup.
Hazard, who has enjoyed a brilliant tournament for Belgium, bagging two goals and assisting two more in four victories for Roberto Martinez’s side revealed that the mood of the players after the loss to France was one of sadness.
“There wasn’t a lot said in the dressing room after the loss, because there was a lot of sadness,” Hazard said.
“We deserved better from this game, even if we expected that sort of game against a team that defends well and plays on the counter-attack.”
Belgium will face England in the third place game on Saturday.
Hazard is expected to have a short break following the World Cup and return to Chelsea to meet up with the team’s pre-season.
