5. Belgium
All the critics lashed on their defense but stats do not lie. Belgium conceded the second least amount of goals, and completed the second highest percentage of clearances. On top of that they had an outstanding performance from young goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, with 13 saves.
Their offense was the talking point heading into the World Cup, with the likes of Eden Hazard, Romelu Lukaku and other elite club players. However, as Belgium produced the third most amount of attacks, they only scored nine goals.
Belgium also has a very young team, and have a lot to look forward to in the next four years.
