Belgium vs Senegal

Belgium pulled off one of the great World Cup comebacks, beating Senegal 3-2 after extra time in Seattle. The decisive moment came when Youri Tielemans slotted home a penalty in the 125th minute — reportedly the latest winning goal in World Cup history. Senegal had looked entirely comfortable for most of the match. Habib Diarra tapped in after Ismaïla Sarr's shot struck the post in the 25th minute, and Sarr doubled the lead with a brilliant half-volley in the 51st. With two goals in three late minutes, substitute Romelu Lukaku (86') and Tielemans — heading in a Leandro Trossard cross (89') — dragged Belgium level. In extra time, VAR confirmed Lamine Camara had fouled Tielemans inside the box, and the captain made no mistake from the spot. Belgium advance to face the United States or Bosnia-Herzegovina in the Round of 16. Senegal, dominant for long stretches, exit the tournament having wasted a very real chance at a deep run.
