‘Ask Chelsea’: European forward addresses future after impressive international display

On-loan Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku offered a simple response to the suggestion that his performance against England on Tuesday night was a desire to prove himself here again.

Belgium and England drew the friendly game at Wembley 2-2, following a last-minute equaliser from Jude Bellingham after Ivan Toney and Youri Tielemans had grabbed the game’s other goals. 

Speaking to Sky Sports after the match, Lukaku described what it felt like to concede a last-minute equaliser. 

“That’s football at the end of the day,” he said. “It’s not over until the referee blows the final whistle, but we have to continue and see progress, and we had an okay performance today.”
