Fans react to Romelu Lukaku missing big chances against Croatia

The Red Devils striker Romelu Lukaku had four big chances to win it for his team. However, he missed all of them from, arguably, good scoring angles. Soccer fans ripped him apart on Twitter after his performance.

Following are some of the reactions to Belgium’s elimination:

Belgium’s golden generation reached the semi-finals of the 2018 World Cup. Despite losing the semifinals to the eventual champions, France, they brought a medal home that year as they beat England in the 3rd place match. Almost the whole team was at its peak and had a good chance of winning the trophy. However, they have massively declined ever since.

Two years after their bronze medal finish at the World Cup, they started the 2020 Euros as favorites again. However, a disappointing campaign followed. They had a top team, but couldn’t go past the quarterfinals.

While many didn’t give them the favorites tag ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, they were expected to reach the knockout stages of the competition. But they lost against Morocco with a scoreline of 2-0, which put them in a difficult position to qualify. After desperate attempts to score against Croatia, they ended the game scoreless, crashing out of the competition.
