Lukaku's late double leads Belgium win over Ukraine

Belgium retained their place in League A of the Nations League with a stunning 3-0 home win over Ukraine on Sunday as Romelu Lukaku's late double helped them secure a 4-3 aggregate victory.

Ukraine had a two-goal lead in the tie after their comeback win in the first leg and looked set to hold on to their advantage as a dominant Belgium struggled to find a way past goalkeeper Andriy Lunin for much of the match.

But Belgium managed to break the deadlock in the 70th minute when substitute Maxim De Cuyper scored with a first-time effort off a quick pass from Jeremy Doku.

Lukaku then made it 2-0 to level the tie with a terrific volley from Kevin De Bruyne's cross five minutes later, before Ukraine almost restored their lead as Artem Dovbyk's header was saved by Matz Sels, who replaced Thibaut Courtois in goal for Belgium.

Lukaku sealed their aggregate victory in the 86th minute as he netted his second goal with a low shot past Lunin, who had pulled off a couple of key saves but could not prevent the Napoli striker scoring his 88th international goal.
