His opening goal came after just nine minutes when he finished from close range following excellent work by Nicolas Raskin. <\/p>\n<p>Although the <strong>United States briefly leveled through a deflected Malik Tillman free kick<\/strong> in the 30th minute, Belgium responded almost immediately as De Ketelaere headed home his second goal to restore the lead.<\/p>\n<h2>The US Looked Uncomfortable<\/h2>\n<p>Leandro Trossard, Youri Tielemans and Dodi Luk\u00e9bakio controlled the midfield throughout the contest, while the American side struggled to establish any rhythm. The USMNT frequently misplaced passes, failed to press effectively and looked uncomfortable whenever Belgium attacked.<\/p>\n<p>The decisive moment came in the second half with Matt Freese\u2019s costly mistake. The goalkeeper collected a long ball outside the penalty area, but briefly hesitated and this allowed De Ketelaere to steal the ball before Hans Vanaken finished into an empty net from distance.<\/p>\n<p><center><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!?!?!?!?!?! <\/p>\n<p>Belgium take a 3-1 lead on one of the biggest mistakes you&#39;ll see<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/hashtag\/FIFAWorldCup?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FIFAWorldCup<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/X0EbRNewG7\">pic.twitter.com\/X0EbRNewG7<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; TSN (@TSN_Sports) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TSN_Sports\/status\/2074304197407727724?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 7, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/center><\/p>\n<p><strong>Romelu Lukaku<\/strong> added a fourth goal in stoppage time celebrating by mocking President Trump after he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/football\/story\/_\/id\/49286603\/us-president-donald-trump-confirms-asked-fifa-review-balogun-red-card\">controversially intervened in Folarin Balogun red card suspension<\/a>.
