Has the "Golden Generation" of Belgium got one more tournament in them before some retire from the international scene?

There's only one team left and it ain't Spain.

I didn't realise Jinxy was Scottish..
If we don't get too carried away we should make it to the Final. We can still play better than we have so far, so that's a good sign.
Italy clearly the team to beat, but Spain can't be ruled out of it.

Spain , I don’t think so , too erratic and they’ll be tired after that last saga.No , Italy are the ones to beat and in my glass half empty way , after all the hurrahs I don’t think we’re streetwise enough to do it.
With a bit of luck we’ll huff and puff our way past the next two ( slightly weaker) opponents to the adulation of the population , then it will be men versus boys. But I’d say it will be a triumph if we make it to the final , we’d have done well.

So up next the Danes, from memory they lost to Finland (and Belgium) which does not suggest we should be "too" worried, but then put 4 past Wales and Russia (but to be fair were not shining lights in this tournament). And got a similar result against the Czech's that we did. I have not watched an entire game of their's yet, but have watched all the goals, and they certainly look very good up front. I still think we will have too much class for them, but expecting a very tough encounter. Onwards and upwards
