De Bruyne at the double! Belgium star rolls back the years in 3-0 Turkey win

Kevin De Bruyne scored twice, leading Belgium to a 3-0 victory over Turkey in their Nations League match. The Belgian star, now in his 127th appearance for his country, played a one-two with Dodi Lukebakio, finishing coolly from the edge of the box. Despite Turkey's attacking threat, they couldn't capitalize on the chances, leaving Belgium one point behind France in Group A1.

De Bruyne expressed his enjoyment and desire to inspire younger players, while his coach, Mark van Bommel, praised his consistent performance. The win marks a third consecutive loss for Turkey, leaving Belgium in second place. Elsewhere, Italy held France to a 1-1 draw, Poland's Robert Lewandowski scored a hat-trick in a 6-0 win against Romania, Northern Ireland defeated Ukraine 3-0, and Hungary and Sweden drew 1-1.
