Romelu Lukaku scores twice in Belgium win

Romelu Lukaku scored twice as Belgium cruised to a 3-0 victory in their first UEFA Nations League encounter against Iceland on Tuesday night.

Eden Hazard opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 29th minute in Reykjavik, as Belgium played their first competitive game since beating England in the third-place play-off at the World Cup, before Lukaku, who had won the penalty, struck himself two minutes later.

Iceland were chasing a first win in the competition after losing their League A opener against Switzerland on Saturday, but could not find a way back into the game in the second half, before Lukaku’s smart finish sealed the victory nine minutes from time.
