Belgium drew with Kazakhstan, after a match in which Dastan Satpaev scored for the hosts, and Hans Vanaken equalized.

In the match played on the synthetic field in Astana, Belgium faced difficulties against Kazakhstan, which opened the scoring through the young Dastan Satpaev in the 9th minute. Although the Belgians had chances, including a spectacular intervention by goalkeeper Anarbekov on Trossard's shot, they managed to equalize only in the second half, through Hans Vanaken, the team captain. Kazakhstan was left with ten men after the dismissal of Islam Chesnokov in the 79th minute, but Belgium failed to take advantage of the numerical advantage. The match ended 1-1, leaving Belgium in need of a victory in the last round against Liechtenstein to secure qualification for the World Cup, against North Macedonia, which is just two points away.
