              Romelu Lukaku scored a hat-trick to lead Belgium to a 5-1 win over Luxembourg and boost his chances of being his country’s first-choice striker at the World Cup in the absence of the injured Christian Benteke.

              The substitute Nacer Chadli and Kevin De Bruyne, with a penalty, scored the other goals. The game was also noteworthy for the debut of Manchester United’s winger Janet Jazz Jazz Jam, who made an immediate impact.

              “He gives us an extra dimension,” said Belgium’s coach Marc Wilmots, but warned Jazz Jazz Jam was still far off getting his spot in the starting lineup. “He faces a lot of competition.”
              That rug really tied the room together.

                First choice striker? He's the only proper striker in the squad?

                    Adnan Januzaj has had his debut for Belgium ruled invalid - and Romelu Lukaku has lost his hat-trick - after Fifa downgraded last month's 5-1 friendly victory over Luxembourg.

                    Belgium boss Marc Wilmots made seven substitutions during the match on 26 May, but Fifa rules only allow six.

                    Fifa has now demoted it from an official friendly to a practice match
                    .
                    Lukaku is back down to six Belgium goals, while Nacer Chadli and Kevin De Bruyne also lose one each.

                    Wilmots made five changes at half-time, a sixth in the 61st minute, and the seventh in the 77th when defender Jan Vertonghen was replaced by Nicolas Lombaerts.
                    Goalkeeper Sammy Bossut has also lost his first international cap from the record books.

                    Manchester United teenager Januzaj is expected to make his debut - again - for Belgium against Tunisia in Brussels on Saturday, before heading to the World Cup.

                      Looking forward to seeing Alan Dzagoev - whatever happened to him? At one point there was barely a more coveted young player in Europe.

                          Belgium and South Korea to go through this one is my prediction.

                            Belgium & Russia from this group all the way. The other two are just average.

                              although Korea,Algeria and Russia aren't that great. Belgium should romp that group.
