Mark van Bommel says he is “100% happy” after Belgium begin his reign with a 2-0 victory over Italy. The result comes in a Nations League match played at Stadio Olimpico, where van Bommel oversees his first games as Belgium head coach.
Both outlets highlight that the win sets a positive tone for his early tenure. Football Italia focuses on van Bommel’s reaction, describing his comments as Belgium being “100% happy” after ending Italy’s run against them in this context. Soccer News emphasizes that the debut is both a winning start and one that leaves him “happy and satisfied,” reflecting on the performance more directly. While the framing differs—reaction versus broader assessment—both point to the same match, scoreline, and upbeat assessment from van Bommel.
