Belgium bounced back from a defeat in their opening game of the Euro 2024 to seal a 2-0 win over Romania, with Kevin de Bruyne inspiring the victory.

Belgium had been stunned by Slovakia in their first group E game but overcame the pressure to secure the big win over Romania as the race for knockouts qualification continues.

Romelu Lukaku saw a third Euro 2024 goal ruled out by the Video Assistant Referee. The Belgian had two goals ruled out in their previous game.

The result leaves the group on a knife-edge as all four teams have three points.
