Lukaku Sets World Cup Record with Fourth Super-Sub Goal in Belgium’s 4-1 Win Over USA
Romelu Lukaku made history by becoming the first player to score as a substitute in four different World Cup matches. Introduced from the bench, he capped Belgium’s convincing 4-1 win over co-hosts USA with a stoppage-time finish. Charles De Ketelaere starred with a first-half brace surrounding Malik Tillman’s equaliser. Hans Vanaken then capitalised on a goalkeeping error to extend Belgium’s lead before Lukaku sealed the victory late on, according to Opta statistics. Belgium now prepare for a quarterfinal showdown with Spain in Los Angeles after the Spaniards edged Portugal 1-0 in Cristiano Ronaldo’s final World Cup appearance.
