DH Les Sports: Five-star Kevin De Bruyne

"He was the best 'Red Devil' of the night, reminding everyone that he still had that magic touch. Both of his strikes from outside the penalty area - one on the move, the other from where he stood - were a reflection of the player who was at an outstanding level a few seasons ago; although he has returned to more 'human' levels in recent months, he has not lost any of his talent."

'A DELICIOUS GOAL FROM LUKAKU'

Sporza: Two magnificent goals from De Bruyne and a wonderful goal from Lukaku: Red Devils beat Türkiye 3-0

"They may be old, but they are definitely not finished. Thanks to two great works from Kevin De Bruyne and a stylish goal from Romelu Lukaku, who entered the game late, the Red Devils eliminated Türkiye with an easy game. Sclessin had a real festive atmosphere."

De Standaard: As enthusiastic as youngsters, Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku earned Belgium a 3-0 win against Türkiye.

'A TIMELESS CLASSIC'

Nieuwsblad: A timeless classic: The Red Devils won 3-0 against Türkiye thanks to Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku.

Circus Daily: Two superb goals from Kevin De Bruyne gave the Red Devils victory against Türkiye

"Who said his time was over? Kevin De Bruyne scored two magnificent goals in the Sclessin on Friday night to lead the Red Devils to a convincing victory against Arda Güler's Turkey."

'THE AMAZING DE BRUYNE AND LUKAKU'

Voetbal Nieuws: Magnificent De Bruyne and Lukaku brought Türkiye to its knees

"Following their defeat against France, Belgium needed a win to increase their chances of securing second place in the Nations League. The Belgians won the match 3-0 at the sold-out Sclessin Stadium, but the score reflected a slightly higher difference than the match on the field. Kevin De Bruyne was the star of the match with his two goals, while Romelu Lukaku, who entered the game later, also contributed to the score with his effective performance."

Sport: De Bruyne had the upper hand against Güler again in Belgium.

"Kevin De Bruyne returned Belgium to a familiar atmosphere, to nights marked by his talent. Scoring two goals in the 3-0 win against Turkey (the second was a stylish, arcing shot sent into the top corner of the goal), the Red Devils' captain took his team to six points and placed them in an assertive position in the race for the Nations League quarter-finals."

Marca: De Bruyne became the architect of another nightmare for Türkiye with his two goals

"In the chaos of Türkiye, their stars emerged. Arda Güler took responsibility and carried the team on his shoulders. The best opportunities arose from his feet, but he was repeatedly blocked by Lammers."

'ARDA GÜLER'S NEVER-ENDING NIGHTMARE'

AS: Arda Güler's endless nightmare

"Arda Güler has been living a constant nightmare with the national team. From the disappointing World Cup to the Nations League campaign, where they lost three in a row against top opponents such as Italy, France and finally Belgium, where he regained form thanks to two goals from De Bruyne and the enthusiasm of Lukebakio, their performances have been an absolute nightmare. They conceded eight goals in total and scored just one."
