Belgium faced Slovakia in Monday’s Group E match, and Romelu Lukaku was struggling to keep up. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t seem to find the back of the net. Just when things started looking up for him with a second-half equalizer, fate had other plans.
Lukaku scored a stunning sliding finish from Amadou Onana’s knockdown at the far post, giving hope to Belgium that they could turn things around. But just as Lukaku was starting to celebrate, another goal was ruled out with only four minutes left in the game. This time, it was because of a handball called by Johan Bakayoko in the build-up to Lukaku’s goal.
Despite his best efforts and struggles on the field, it seems that luck is not on Lukaku’s side in this match. Every opportunity he has to make an impact is thwarted by unforeseen circumstances.
