The attacking defensive player of the Belgian national team, Kevin De Bruyne, entered his name into the history of the national team, setting a unique record in the hour of the match of the third round of the group stage of the World Championship 2026.

The 34-year-old playmaker scored a goal in the 66th goal of the match, which ended with the Belgians winning the match 5:1. This goal became historic for De Bruyne.

The captain of the “Black Devils” became the first football player in the history of the Belgian national team to score in three different world championships. Previously, he appeared once at the 2014 and 2018 World Cups, and now he has expanded his collection at the 2026 World Cup tournaments.
