Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne was the hero as he inspired Belgium through to the last 16 of UEFA Euro 2020 on Thursday.
Trailing 1-0 to Denmark at half-time, De Bruyne came off the bench and assisted Thorgan Hazard before scoring a stunning winner from long range in his first appearance since he was injured in the UEFA Champions League final.
He was one of four Premier League players to feature for the world's No 1 ranked team, along with Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans, Wolverhampton Wanderers' Leander Dendoncker and Tottenham Hotspur defender Toby Alderweireld.
