2018 FIFA World Cup Video Diaries: Belgium Football Star Michy Batshuayi’s Epic Goal Celebration Is Too Hilarious to Be Missed!

Yesterday, Belgium beat Harry Kane led side England by 1-0. It was former Manchester United winger Adnan Januzaj who scored a goal for the side against the three lions. The moment the goal was scored, the elated Belgium side began celebrating. Chelsea’s Michy Batshuayi too was keen to join the jubilations like rest of his teammates, but instead grabbed headlines for his epic goal celebrations.

So here’s what happened. After the goal was scored, Michy wanted to kick the ball into the crowd but instead kicked it on to the post. The ball immediately deflected back to his face. Check out the hilarious video below. The hilarious goal was later explained by Michy on Twitter. He took to Twitter and wrote, “Ahahha I knew I would be f*cked the minute I come to my mentions 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 why am I so stupid bro 🤦🏾‍♂️ shit hurts.”

After the match, while addressing the press, Belgium boss Roberto Martinez said that the team was ready to face Japan in the pre-quarters of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Roberto said, “You cannot plan the ideal scenario, you’ve seen big nations already eliminated. We need to look at ourselves, we are a stronger group than we were before the game. We’re facing Japan, we’ve got to be ready for it.” Meanwhile, England will face Colombia on Tuesday and Gareth Southgate said that he will have to take some tough calls. “Everybody is in the frame to play in the next game and it was important these payers were given time on the pitch to press their case. Anybody that plays against Colombia will know they are match ready. We are still a work in progress but that’s not a bad thing at this stage,” said Southgate to the press.
