UEFA Nations League
Van Bommel delighted with Belgium win and says De Bruyne could fit at PSV

Summarised by MatchPal
Van Bommel praised Belgium's 2-1 win over Turkey in Nations League and said De Bruyne could suit PSV's attacking style, though the midfielder must decide his own future.
Mark van Bommel expressed satisfaction with Belgium's victory over Turkey in the Nations League, highlighting how his side controlled the match after a difficult opening 20 minutes. Turkey's Arda Güler had given the hosts an early lead from a free kick, but Belgium responded with two well-taken goals, particularly dominating the first quarter after half-time.
Van Bommel noted that his team gave Turkey false hope in the final half hour but ultimately deserved the win.
Belgium's victory secures a place in Pot 1 for the Euro qualifying draw, but Van Bommel wants more. He aims to finish second in the Nations League group and reach the quarter-finals, though Italy's draw with France complicates Belgium's path. Belgium must beat Italy on Thursday to have a chance of topping the group.
When asked about PSV's reported interest in Kevin De Bruyne before the match, Van Bommel said the Manchester City midfielder must make his own decision but acknowledged that De Bruyne lives nearby and that Dutch football's attacking style could suit him well.
