Key Moments

Lukaku, who has faced fitness challenges at Napoli, had a chance to secure a victory for Belgium late in the game but missed a header from close range.

Salah, who has scored 257 goals and provided 123 assists in 442 appearances, has won the Golden Boot four times and contributed to Liverpool's success with two Premier League titles. Meanwhile, De Bruyne, a key figure in Manchester City's dominance, has claimed 16 titles with the club, including a Champions League trophy.
