Day 10: Belgium vs Tunisia, South Korea vs Mexico and Germany vs Sweden

Can anyone tell me.. Hazard's comments about Lukaku, saying they were playing with 10 men.. Were they taken out of context or was he joking or something?

It's too much of an outrageous thing to say, surely it's not what it seems, and Lukaku has been celebrating with him so he clearly doesn't have it in for him. Have I missed any part of the story?

Blown over the top in the English press.
His original remarks in the Belgian press weren't that bad and there's certainly no bad blood between the 2.

He was talking about Lukaku playing isolated so far upfield rather than him not trying. They're friends.

Of course those who either don't like Hazard or like a bit of drama will want there to be some big rift.

Those comments weren't necessary, why would you even expose your "friend" like that. It makes no sense to me
 
What the feck are BBC showing right now
 
Kane, Lewandowski, Ronaldo who is practically a striker, Aguero.

That's where I'd have to disagree. I personally don't feel the highlighted three are a tier above Lukaku.

They may have a better touch, but still have inconsistencies in their games.

Tunisia cannot cope with Lukaku today. To me, he's giving them a tougher game than Kane did, despite also scoring two.

Actually, Kane was poor against Tunisia.

Because he is a bit of a prick. If anything he should adress his own greed on the ball.
 
I assume she’s talking about Muenier? Mertens hasn’t got an assist

Eh it's not really a big deal?
When a coach or teammate calls you out it can provide a kick up the backside. I know if someone said that about me it would light a fire under my ass.
They're professional athletes and lukaku in particular wouldn't let something like that get to him.
