BRUSSELS — Belgium’s interim coach Frank Vercauteren has offered to
resign following Wednesday’s 2-1 loss to Armenia which ensured they
could not qualify for next year’s World Cup finals in South Africa.

Dutch coach Dick Advocaat has already signed a two-year contract to
take charge next year.

Advocaat was fired by Russian club Zenit St. Petersburg last month
and could begin the job immediately.
