Brussels Attack: Belgian National team cancels training session

Sequel to the Brussels' bomb attacks this morning, the Belgian National Team has cancelled Tuesday's training session out of respect for the victims of the attacks. 

The team, who are currently preparing for this summer's European Championship, were scheduled to play Portugal in a friendly match at the Brussels' King Baudouin Stadium on 29 March. It is unclear if this fixture will go ahead as planned. 

The Belgian capital was attacked this morning after explosions struck Brussels Airport and the metro system, causing at least 13 deaths. 

Belgium have qualified for Euro 2016 in France and are in group E with Italy, the Republic of Ireland and Sweden.
