Belgium top Group G with a 1-0 win over England

#3 Adnan Januzai winds back the clock

Januzaj with the winner

Adnan Januzaj was trolled mercilessly after he got selected in the Belgian squad for the World Cup and the likes of Leroy Sane didn't for their respective sides. The mercurial left-footed winger has struggled to fulfil his potential and was moved on by Manchester United.

He has struggled to prove his former employers wrong and has only found life more difficult in the clubs he has gone on to play for: Dortmund, Sunderland and Real Sociedad. He got his chance to set the record straight when he was drafted into the side by Roberto Martinez and he grabbed it with both hands.

He reminded us of what he was capable of with a near Arjen Robben-like finish, cutting back onto his favourite left foot and curling it in, past the diving goalkeeper. A goal worthy of winning any game as that is how it proved to be in the end.
