In addition to their embarrassing 1-4 defeat at home against the Netherlands, Belgium had to deal with the loss of Romelu Lukaku due to injury, who left the pitch in pain after a challenge from Nathan Ake.
His injury, to his right ankle, means that he has been ruled out for selection against Poland tonight in the second round of Nations League fixtures.
It was him, along with Belgium, who confirmed the striker's absence on social media: "Romelu Lukaku is out for today´s game against Poland. He started treatment." After a season spent more in the shadows than in the limelight at Chelsea (15 goals in 44 games), the striker has not been able find his form at international level. At the same time, speculation about whether he will leave London this summer or not continues after not living up to expectations following his recent transfer from Inter Milan.
