Marc Wilmots became known as an ever-present striker with a strong header and a hard shot. He evolved into a position behind the strikers later on and grew into a true leader on the field, often serving as an extension for national team manager Robert Waseige. He was selected for four World Cups (1990, 1994, 1998 and 2002), but did not play in 1990. He also led our country to two big tournaments as national team manager. At the 2014 World Cup, he reached the quarterfinal in which Belgium lost to Argentina. Two years later, at the European Championship in France, Belgium also went out in the quarterfinals.
