Belgium produced one of the greatest comebacks of the FIFA World Cup 2026, beating Senegal 3-2 after extra time to reach the Round of 16. Trailing 2-0 until the closing minutes of normal time, Belgium fought back through Romelu Lukaku and Youri Tielemans to force extra time. With a penalty shootout moments away, Tielemans converted a dramatic 125th-minute spot-kick after a VAR review awarded Belgium a penalty. The victory completed an extraordinary turnaround and sent the Red Devils into the Round of 16, where they will face the United States in Seattle. (PC: X)
