Belgium v Romania LIVE: Euro 2024 result and final score as Kevin De Bruyne goal seals crucial Group E win

Kylian Mbappe leaves France game covered in blood as fans shower forward with whistles

Belgium got their Euro 2024 campaign back on track after an impressive 2-0 win against Romania, with goals from Youri Tielemans and Kevin De Bruyne enough to take the points and leave Group E wide open.

Romelu Lukaku was the architect of the first Belgian goal and teed Tielemans up perfectly to fire home a superb effort from just inside the area in the second minute.

De Bruyne had chances throughout a polished Belgian performance and doubled the lead with 10 minutes left when he latched on to a long ball from goalkeeper Koen Casteels and found the net from seven metres out.

The result leaves all four teams in Group E on three points going into the Wednesday’s final matches, when Belgium take on Ukraine and Romania face Slovakia.
