Decent player, that Kevin De Bruyne fella.
Decent team, those Belgians.
A front six of Mousa Dembele, Marouane Fellaini, Dries Mertens, Kevin De Bruyne, Eden Hazard, and Romelu Lukaku looks menacing enough on paper as it is but then Kevin De Bruyne goes and does Kevin De Bruyne things.
Belgium came from behind in their international friendly with Switzerland to win 2-1 and, although Lukaku got them back in the game with a tap-in, it was the Man City wizard that really lit the place up with an absolute screamer.

Ireland face off with the Belgians in their Euro 2016 group on June 18 in Bordeaux, the country's second game of the tournament, and they will be hoping that De Bruyne leaves whatever boots he was wearing on Saturday at home. And his both feet too whilst he's at it.
The 24-year-old picked out the near top corner with Ronaldo-esque precision as the Swiss piled bodies into the box to block off his channels late in the game. It didn't work. He found a way through.
The flight of the ball, the pace on it, the accuracy. Pure gold.

Don't start this carry on in France, Kev.
