Belgium 1-1 Greece: Romelu Lukaku equalizer rescues side with late goal [Best Tweets]

It was a second half filled with drama at the The King Baudouin Stadium as an 89th minute Romelu Lukaku equalizer amidst 2 Greek players getting sent off ensured that the match ended 1-1 and that Belgium kept their place atop Group H.

The second half couldn’t possibly have been worse than the first and it thankfully, it started off with a bang as 19 seconds in, Benfica striker Kostas Mitroglou got on the scoresheet. The scoreline would remain at 0-1 for large portions of the game and the Greeks held on brilliantly, despite the 65th minute sending off of Georgios Tzavellas.

Then in the 89th minute, Romelu Lukaku, who had been a mere passenger for large parts of the game suddenly sprang to life and scored a stunning goal to bring his side back on level terms.

The Fellaini bashing began almost immediately after the game started. Some fans couldn’t believe how the Manchester United midfielder even made that starting XI.

And then, we came across this.

This fan didn’t even think it was worth the time.

The first half left a lot of the fans pretty frustrated, with Fellaini’s backheel and booking the only major events.

The second didn’t start well for the Belgians. 19 seconds on the clock and former Fulham striker Kostas Mitroglou finishes brilliantly past Courtois.

We see what this fan did there,

It can’t be this obvious. Can it?

After Fellaini, it was Diers Merten’s silliness that enraged the fans. He did this.

Yes, you saw right.

The Belgium bashing continued until Romelu Lukaku of all people, brought them level.

Likely directed at those who were criticising him going into this match. That’s ambition for you.

Really? After 1 goal against a 10-man Greece?

The game didn’t end well however. Lukaku and Greek defender Kostas Manolas seemed to have gotten into an argument about something that was said by the AS Roma defender.
