Chelsea ace Hazard heaps praise on 2-goal Lukaku after previous rap
Posted Sunday, June 24, 2018 by Tribalfootball.com
Chelsea ace Eden Hazard hailed Belgium teammate Romelu Lukaku after his brace in their World Cup win over Tunisia.
Hazard had accused Lukaku of hiding in Belgium's first game against Panama - despite the 25-year-old netting twice in a 3-0 win. But he was far more complimentary after his countryman's latest showing.
"It's easy to play with a player like him," said the Chelsea player. "You pass the ball when he's in front of you and he scores every time.
"He had a fantastic game and scored two goals - that's what you want."
Lukaku's international record now stands at 40 goals in 71 games.
