  "account": "Kevin De Bruyne scored twice as Belgium defeated Turkey 3-0 in the Nations League match. De Bruyne, who played his 127th match for Belgium, opened the scoring with a clever one-two before a cool shot from the edge of the box. Romelu Lukaku sealed the victory with a close-range finish. In France, Zinedane Zidane's team took an early lead through Michael Olise, but Alessandro Bastoni equalised to ensure a 1-1 draw. Poland's Robert Lewandowski scored a hat-trick as they thrashed Romania 6-0, while Northern Ireland beat Ukraine 3-0 in Slovakia. Hungary also won 1-0 against Georgia, and Cyprus defeated Armenia 2-0. Montenegro edged Latvia 2-1, and Moldova beat Kazakhstan 2-1. The Faroe Islands drew 1-1 with Slovakia.",
