📄 Summary
Belgium national football team Emblem
The Belgium national football team has represented Belgium in men's international football since their maiden match in 1904. The squad is under the global jurisdiction of FIFA and is governed in Europe by UEFA—both of which were co-founded by the Belgian team's supervising body, the Royal Belgian Football Association. Periods of regular Belgian representation at the highest international level, from 1920 to 1938, from 1980 to 2002 and again from 2014 onwards, have alternated with mostly unsuccessful qualification rounds. Most of Belgium's home matches are played at the King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels.

Belgium's national team have participated in three quadrennial major football competitions. It appeared in fourteen FIFA World Cups and six UEFA European Championships, and featured at three Olympic football tournaments, including the 1920 Summer Olympics which they won. Other notable performances are victories over four reigning world champions—West Germany, Brazil, Argentina and France—between 1954 and 2002. Belgium has long-standing football rivalries with its Dutch and French counterparts, having played both teams nearly every year from 1905 to 1967. The squad has been known as the Red Devils since 1906; its fan club is named \"1895\".

Belgium finished in third place as hosts at UEFA Euro 1972. After that, they experienced two golden generations. In the first period, which lasted from the 1980s to the early 1990s, the team finished as runners-up at UEFA Euro 1980 and fourth in the 1986 FIFA World Cup. In the second, under the guidance of Marc Wilmots and later Roberto Martínez in the 2010s, Belgium topped the FIFA World Ranking for the first time in November 2015 and finished third at the 2018 FIFA World Cup. To date, Belgium is the only national team in the world to top the FIFA ranking without having won a World Cup or a continental trophy.

National football team squads registered (2022-present)

Players who have participated in major tournaments (FIFA World Cup, UEFA European Championship, CONMEBOL Copa América, CONCACAF Gold Cup, CAF Africa Cup of Nations, AFC Asian Cup) are continuously registered on a yearly basis to preserve their place in history. These are the tournaments that qualify as major competitions.

The historical rosters of national teams are compiled based on participation in these major tournaments, with the aim of documenting and preserving the achievements and contributions of these players. This approach ensures that the names of players who represented significant moments in each country's football history are continuously remembered.

This system focuses on the most important and competitive international tournaments, rather than friendly matches or smaller competitions. By doing so, it accurately reflects each nation's top players and their accomplishments.

Cap (sport)

In sport, a cap is a player's appearance in a game at international level. The term dates from the practice in the United Kingdom of awarding a cap to every player in an international match of rugby football and association football. In the early days of football, the concept of each team wearing a set of matching shirts had not been universally adopted, so each side would distinguish itself from the other by wearing a specific sort of cap.
