In Liege, Belgium defeated Turkey 3-0 in the UEFA Nations League, securing their second victory in three matches under new manager Mark van Bommel.
Kevin De Bruyne opened the scoring in the 10th minute and added his second before the hour mark, while Romelu Lukaku sealed the result in the 76th minute from a Charles De Ketelaere pull back.
Belgium currently holds second place in League A Group 1 behind France, who drew 1-1 with Italy, leaving the Red Devils one point adrift of the leaders.
