Origi shines in Belgium friendly match

Tuesday, 27 May 2014

Lille FC forward
Divock Origi made
his Belgium debut
on Monday night in
the Red Devils'
rampant win over Luxembourg, with
Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku
bagging a hat-trick.
Origi, 19, and son of Kenyan
international Mike Okoth, was brought
in on the hour mark replacing Lukaku
while Manchester United youngster
Adnan Januzaj made his international
debut as a substitute in Monday's
victory.
Belgium have been drawn alongside
Algeria, Russia and South Korea in
Group H at next month's World Cup.
Lukaku opened the scoring after three
minutes, finishing well after being
teed up by Marouane Fellaini.
Joachim equalised from long-range for
Luxembourg on 13 minutes, but
Lukaku regained Belgian's lead 10
minutes later after a defensive mix-
up. United star Januzaj made his
debut, coming on at half-time as Marc
Wilmots ringed the changes, with
Vincent Kompany and Eden Hazard
rested among others.
And Lukaku, who was on loan at
Everton last season, sealed his treble
by running past two defenders and
driving low into the net.
Tottenham's Nacer Chadli added a
fourth, finishing well after good work
by the hosts down the right. And the
Premier League dominance shone
through again, with former Chelsea
man Kevin De Bruyne slotting home a
penalty late on to complete the rout.
