Romelu Lukaku has shared his delight as Belgium secured their spot at EURO 2020 after an emphatic 9-0 win over minnows San Marino.

“9-0 is a good result, the first half especially was good. We are improving more and more, things are happening almost automatically and this helps us when we are out on the pitch. We have been able to show quality even against San Marino,” he said in an interview with hln.be.

“Mission accomplished? My was mission was already completed 21 goals ago but I am even happier with this victory because it falls on my mother’s birthday. She will be happier than me.

He concluded: “Now we just have to confirm that first place in the group, I hope the boys play a good game in Kazakhstan.”
