KIFI

KAZAN, Russia (AP) — Midfielder Dennis Praet has scored the lone goal as a Belgium team missing many of its stars beat Belarus 1-0 to open a nine-point lead in its World Cup qualifying group. Belgium has 16 points from his six games in Group E with the Czech Republic on seven and one match in hand. In the group’s other game, third-placed Wales was held to a goalless draw by Estonia. Belgium lacked accuracy but was never threatened and looked in total control throughout.
