SEATTLE (AP) — Youri Tielemans scored from the penalty spot in stoppage time of extra time, and Belgium came back from two goals down to beat Senegal 3-2 Wednesday in the round of 32 at the World Cup.
Tielemans was fouled just before the end of the 30 minutes of extra time, and the referee awarded the penalty after a video review.
Habib Diarra and IsmaĂŻla Sarr gave the Senegalese a 2-0 lead, but Belgium substitute Romelu Lukaku got one back in the 86th minute and Tielemans equalised in the 89th.
