Saudi Arabia to play Belgium in World Cup warm-up

BRUSSELS, Mar 30 (Reuters) Saudi Arabia will play Belgium in a World Cup warm-up in the Netherlands on May 11, the Belgian Football Association announced today.

''Belgium will play Saudi Arabia at the Stade du Fortuna Sittard close to Maastrict,'' a Belgian FA statement said. It is an away fixture for Belgium.

Saudi Arabia meet Tunisia, Ukraine and Spain in Group H at the World Cup, which kicks off on June 9.

Belgium failed to make the finals in Germany, the first time the Red Devils have not qualified for the tournament since 1978.
