But without technology in use, the goal was not awarded and a fuming Ronaldo was then booked for his protests. “I always give and will give everything for my country, that will never change,” Ronaldo later posted on his Instagram page. Belgium, the world number one-ranked side, sit behind the Czech Republic on goal difference in the early Group E standings. Lukas Provod put the Czechs ahead shortly after half-time in Prague with a magnificent long-range strike, his first international goal. Ten minutes later, Lukaku collected Kevin De Bruyne’s pass, turned his marker and drilled the ball under goalkeeper Tomas Vaclik for his 19th goal in his last 16 games for Belgium.
