Lukaku Hits Double as Belgium Beats Russia
Romelu Lukaku scored twice as Belgium made a strong start to Euro 2020 on Saturday with a 3-0 victory over a disappointing Russia in Saint Petersburg.
Lukaku celebrated his 10th-minute first goal by shouting a message of support into the camera for his Inter Milan teammate Christian Eriksen, who is awake in a Copenhagen hospital after collapsing during Denmark’s game against Finland.

Recall that Eriksen had collapsed during Denmark’s clash with Finland earlier in the day, leading to the suspension of the encounter.
Belgium, the world’s top-ranked side, wrapped up an impressive win with Thomas Meunier’s 34th-minute effort and Lukaku’s late second.
