France vs. Belgium: Lukaku surprised with a great goal for the ‘Red Devils’ 2-0 | VIDEO

Belgium was not satisfied with the initial goal of the advantage – converted by Yannick Ferreira Carrasco – over France, in the key of the semifinals of the UEFA Nations League, and went for more. Romelu Lukalu was present on the scoreboard and declared it 2-0 at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.

About 40 minutes into the first half, the powerful Chelsea striker left defender Lucas Hernández on the road, after a pass into space from Kevin De Bruyne, and defined from the right, at the first post of the goal that Hugo Lloris protected.

From power to power

The time of the reunion. More than three years after the semifinal that faced them in the 2018 World Cup in Russia, the winner France and the defeated Belgium meet again, to define the team that will fight for the title with Spain.

With just over a year to go until the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, two European powers are trying to take flight after their failed Eurocup with the conquest of the second edition of a trophy created by UEFA to replace a part of the friendlies of the calendar.

Belgium, world number 1 in the FIFA rankings, was eliminated in the Eurocup in the quarterfinals against Italy, ultimately the winner, while France fell in the second round against Switzerland in the penalty shootout.
