SEATTLE (AP) --- Youri Tielemans scored from the penalty spot in stoppage time
of extra time, and Belgium came back from two goals down to beat Senegal 3-2
Wednesday in the round of 32 at the World Cup.
Tielemans was fouled just before the end of the 30 minutes of extra time were
finished and the referee awarded the penalty after a video review.
Habib Diarra and Ismala Sarr gave the Senegalese a 2-0 lead, but Belgium
substitute Romelu Lukaku got one back in the 86th minute and Tielemans
equalized in the 89th.
