gliding into that free position. Zo to do a bit of damage from there. And Cotto important from a Belgian angle that he was able to get the touch of it and he needed every inch of it and it's a really welljudged save. That hand, the measurement of how much to put on that save from Corttois is wonderful. And that will be it for Deare. So on comes Belgium's record scorer. Romelu Lukaku restricted to only 64 minutes of action with Napoli this season because of injury, but we know he's a difference maker.
He represents the great hope of the Belgian fans right about now. Yeah, heroes welcome from the Belgian faithful. Now what can they produce? THE ST. LUKAKU ONLY JUST ON AND HAS THE MAGIC TOUCH. ROMELU LUKAKU GOT HIMSELF INTO THAT CENTRAL POSITION. AND THAT'S WHAT BELGIUM NEEDED. All time leading goal scorer. Well, within seconds, the big man delivers. And it's a fantastic run beyond from Mun. That's what they were screaming out for. Someone just to make a run from behind. And Lukaku, a natural striker, a
number nine. His presence in there. In the end, it comes off Hannie, but it is the presence of Lukaku that is there. An own goal. Yeah. But make no moans about it. That is Lukaku. That is what he's all about. Belgium back in the game. Safi again is back there bolstering the defense. Lukaku. Oh, it does come out here and an opportunity. Cananani Corttois with the save for Belgium. Brilliant strike. Wonderful save. Cananani can't believe it. He's just got that half a yard of room there. Just swings the left at it. But Corttois watch him cut his lead after a spirited effort and all of a sudden a chance here Tommy
and THE SAVE MADE BY COTTOIS FOR Belgium in vain and substitutions coming now for Belgium and Robu. He's such a superstar. To with another corner broken nowhere near. Where's this gone? Straight into the back of the net. That is the answer. AND IT'S LEANDRO TRUSS. THIS TIME HE HAS scored and the pressure valve has been released for Belgium. It is Kevin De Brua. Of course, the architect, but what about the defending Warren? Yeah, they get all dragged to the post.
There's a massive gap. It bounces around. Hesitation. There's Jos Aral. Just a bounce. But I said it. Look at the delivery as well. He beats the first post. It's sort of like a machine. He put it into that area time and time again. There's a little bit of hesitation, a little bit of panic, but they don't care. Vera. Oh, that's lovely play by Belgium. This is quality stuff. And there it is. There's number two for Leandro Chasard. And now Belgium HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF BREATHING SPACE at last. But look at the top of the screen.
Everyone thinks now he's going to cross and put wonderful fist in pass. He gets lucky to as it bounces out, but there's nothing about the second attempt. Just watch him adjust the cushion of the chest and he hits it early. Defenders have got no chance to close the ball down, nor is the goalkeeper. He's on a hat trick if he can keep going. But if you're going to be a top striker, you so have to be selfish in your own right. Well done by Patche. But now here's De Bruyne. And finally, just the confident he's had left foot, right foot. He's had opportunities.
They're trying to tear him up, but when he gets it, he tease himself up. Little shift to the ball. That lovely roll of the studs just to roll the ball away from the back line. and then left foot right in the corner. It's a privilege being here. They know the quality. They know what they've got. Enjoy it while it's here because he is one of the best of his generation cuz that may come into everything. Go differential. Egypt have gone back on top as a result of that goal. These things all matter. Now Rascal going to give to the goalkeep.
Look at a natural goal scorer. 91 goal. Just look at him peel off. But look at the spring that he gets. He gets above the ball and the hang time is phenomenal. That little move and he's waiting. He gets over the ball so he can get it down. Look at his body shape. Look how he's back peddling, but he's still got the power to go from a jumping stand just to head it back into the ground. and there is number five. You want them to come out. You want them to prove that they are ninth in the world and that's a lovely little finish as well. Difficult just lets the ball run across his body and he just passes that in the back net. feel for New
Zealand because they've given everything and I've been in the game where you give everything but you're playing against a team that's not only one level two or three levels above you. Raskin Lukaku not a good touch idea. Yeah, not clean. BALL PLAYED IN. LUKAKO. LUKAKU. Well, this reference point, a player to play off of the initial flick on gets dispossessed, but then they stay with it. Belgium really the first opportunity where we've seen that they're first to it. And then Lukaku in this moment, he is not going to miss. This is where he's made his money, made his career. Just gets away from his defender, keeps it alive in the last second, even if it's a
tight angle, just sneaks it into the near post to give this Belgium team just a little bit of life late in this game. That was his out wide. Morera brings it down nicely. Trousard putting one UP FOR GRABS. KEEPER OUT. HE MISSED IT. IT'S TIME. Tielemans is celebrating who Lori saw this and well just exceptional work and the toughest time to concede a goal is immediately after you just conceded the previous one. But we knew it was just going to be about whipping BALLS IN GIVING THEMSELVES a chance. These have given Sagal some issues throughout this match. those whipped in balls from deeper positions. And then Talman's been
in more of an attacking position throughout this second half to try to get something out of this game. Just rises above. Doesn't even need to get a good look on it. Just glances it in. Sagal is trying to make the play defensively, but you see what that means really after chasing this game for 90 minutes. My goodness. Ibakio Onana the freshest legs in the game. Nice ball towards MORERA IN FRONT. IT'S LOOSE ON THE CROSSBOARD. Luke Kbakio.
He can't believe his luck. Immediately walks away from it. Several players are down. Garcia is already on the yellow card on that bench for Belgium. And that's what he was pointing at like let's take a look and they are. Let's bring in our rules expert Dr. Joe Magnick. Dr. Joe, what did you see there? Well, there's clearly contact between the number eight green shirted player and number eight white shirted player, but it comes seemingly after the ball has passed them. uh you know but they are checking because it's foul in the penalty area but it's not one that you would be given a penalty kick for normally see the foul comes there it's much later after the ball is passed and I would not be awarding a penalty here
eight number eight why will play the ball and the number eight in green kicks the foot of the attacker for that reason the final decision is penalty. Penalty kick for the lead. Tiemans is ready. TIELEMENS WITH THE STRIKE. TIEMANS. Everyone's off the bench as Belgium leads for the first time. it's the captain. Lori scored one to tie it. Scores one to take the lead and maybe the one that puts them through to the round of 60. We don't know how much time is left. Stepping up when your team needs it most. He draws the foul. Then after a bit of gamesmanship, look at that penalty. Just upper corner. So smooth.
Knows exactly where he's going. Jiao goes one way, he goes the other, and then all smiles. And what a turn of events that we've seen. It's had everything. They're down two goals. They come back and now what looks like to be the gamewinner for Tielemen's and Belgium in these dying moments. Castia with a low ball in. That's away by Fabrian Ruiz. De Bruyne. That's a lovely pass by De Bruyne. Finds the gap. CAST DETERA. 1-1. THE SPAIN DEFENSE FINALLY BREACHED AND BELGIUM BACK ON TERMS IN LOS ANGELES. WELL, it's exceptional football from Belgium. No question of offside.
Watch this pass from Kevin De Bruyne. The first time this is what makes it just here. First time into that pass. Watch the run from Decatalara. Gets himself back on side in front of Kubati. That is class. That is just an exceptional goal. He's not the biggest Kubati. The cataly is a bit bigger, but the timing of the run was marvelous. I think it's 10 hours and 50 minutes or thereabouts since they last conceded a goal. And you need to score and make a goal as good as that to beat them. And that's why Kevin De Bruyne plays. He sees the pictures a little
