Belgium showcased their finest World Cup performance, crushing New Zealand 5-1 to secure a knockout stage berth as Group G winners. After two draws, a dominant display saw Leandro Trossard net twice, complemented by goals from Kevin De Bruyne, Romelu Lukaku, and Alexis Saelemaekers. New Zealand’s campaign ends without a win, despite a late consolation goal. Belgium now prepares for a Wednesday knockout clash.
