Belgium on Friday beat Nema United 1-0 at the Madina Salam Football Field to bounce back in contention for a place in the semifinal of the 2015 Madina Salam Noran football tournament.

The victory was Belgium’s first-ever victory in the Madina Salam dry season biggest football fray after losing to Nature Camp 2-1 in their opening game a fortnight ago.          

The defeat was Nema United’s second successive defeat in the Madina Salam dry season biggest football jamboree after losing to Nature Camp 2-1 in their opening game before their 1-0 defeat to Belgium at the weekend.

Nema United need to win their two remaining games against Central FC and Gunjur Fisheries to fancy their chances of qualifying for the semifinal after losing to Nature Camp and Belgium in their two opening games.

Central FC are the race with 6 points in two games after winning their two opening games, while Nature Camp and Gunjur Fisheries are 2nd and 3rd places with 4 points each in three games.

Belgium are second place from bottom with 3 points in two games following their 1-0 win over Nema United, while Nema United are rooted at the bottom with zero points in two games after losing their two opening games. They would need to win their two games to stand in contention for a place in the semifinal.
