[1] has almost all one would want to know. The Belgian players had to pay their own way, as there was no money for them. As a result, players like Boey, Rooze, Meulders, De Bruycker, etc were absent and the team was weaker than ever. Consequently, Belgium lost against countries like Wales, Færøer and Guyana. Here are the round-by-round results.
