Belgium in 2010 as a 16-year-old,
scored ten goals in the 2018 World Cup
qualifying campaign – another record
for his country.
Despite failing to score in seven
consecutive games for Manchester
United, Lukaku enjoyed a sensational
start to his career at Old Trafford after
leaving Everton in the summer.

first ten games for the Red Devils and
was instrumental as Jose Mourinho’s
side battled rivals Man City for top spot
in the Premier League.

drought against Mexico on Friday night
and said after the entertaining 3-3
draw: ‘”It’s a relief but I knew it would
come.
“I feel great to be honest. I was born to
score. I don’t think many strikers of my
generation have as many goals as me. I
am like a leopard in the box.”
