For today's football line-up quiz, we want you to find the Belgian team who dispatched of the Republic of Ireland at Euro 2016.

This should be a fun one. This was a classic Begian line-up, right in the middle of their Golden Generation, with superstars a-plenty across the side. 

This was pre-Roberto Martinez, too. The Spaniard would take charge of the red Devils for the following World Cup but Marc Wilmots was still coaching the team at this point – and let's face it, he didn't do much better with this group.
