Match Info
Saint Petersburg StadiumAttendance: 26264Game Stream
- 90'+3'Belgium cruise to a 3-0 win over Russia in their opening game at the Euros. Semenov's mistake left Lukaku in on goal just 10 minutes in and he slotted in before dedicating it to his Inter team-mate Christian Eriksen down the camera, who collapsed in Denmark's game earlier today. Meunier then capitalised on Shunin's mistake to make it 2-0 at the break. Lukaku then rounded it off with his second of the game late on, firing past Shunin to secure the points.
- 90'+3'That's all for today, goodbye!
