GLASGOW, Scotland (AP) - Belgium moved closer to a place at the World Cup with a 2-0 victory against Scotland on Friday that sent the Red Devils five points clear at the top of Group A Air Max sale online.

Unbeaten in its eight matches, Belgium leads second-place Croatia by five points and now needs only a draw when the two sides meet next month to secure its spot at the finals in Brazil. Croatia was held to a 1-1 draw against Serbia in the Balkan derby.

Steven Defour and Kevin Mirallas scored the goals for a Belgium side that was playing without its injured playmaker Eden Hazard.

The visitors got off to a promising start in Glasgow with Christian Benteke missing the target from close range from Kevin De Bruyne's corner.

Belgium created several chances and finally found the net after 38 minutes when Defour fired the ball past Scotland keeper David Marshall.

Scotland had a good chance to level with 10 minutes to go when Jordan Rhode dragged his shot past the post from close range and the visitors doubled their lead in the 89th when Benteke's pass found substitute Mirallas, who fired the ball into the back of the net KD 6 GS Sale Online.
