The chase for the 2016 European Cup will take its next step on Monday. Two teams attempting to qualify for the tournament will do battle in a match between Bosnia-Herzegovina and Belgium. The contest scheduled for 2:45 p.m. ET will be held at Bilino Polje Stadium in Zenica and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on ESPN2.
Bosnia-Herzegovina head coach Safet Susic had this to offer following the team's scoreless draw with Wales on Friday (via UEFA): "It was a tough game. There were many chances on both sides. I am not dissatisfied. Wales are a good team and Gareth Bale is one of the best players in the world. My team gave a good performance. We secretly wanted a win, but in the end we played out a 0-0. We didn't think they would be better than us, but we definitely expected a lot of counterattacks, especially since Bale is a very fast player."
"Now it's important to rest and then focus on the match against Belgium on Monday," he added. "So far we have a loss and a draw, but we are sure that next year we will play better."
