Romelu Lukaku Makes History as Belgium Falls to Slovakia in Euro 2024 Opener
In a stunning turn of events, Belgium suffered a 1-0 defeat to Slovakia in their opening match of the Euro 2024 tournament on Monday evening.
The match saw Ivan Schranz score the only goal of the game in the seventh minute, securing a historic win for Slovakia.
Romelu Lukaku, Belgium's record scorer, made history of a different kind as he became the first player to have two goals cancelled by VAR in a single Euro match. Despite his efforts, Lukaku was unable to find the back of the net, with both of his goals disallowed by the video assistant referee.
The match was a shocking upset for Belgium, who are ranked third in the world and were expected to dominate the tournament. Slovakia's win, however, was well-deserved, as they played a courageous and determined game.
The final score read 1-0 in favor of Slovakia, with Ivan Schranz being the sole scorer of the match. Belgium will look to bounce back from this defeat in their upcoming matches, while Slovakia will aim to continue their winning streak.
