In Seattle on the morning of July 2nd, Senegal seemed to have secured their place in the next round, leading 2-0 until the 85th minute thanks to goals from Habib Diarra and Ismaïla Sarr. However, in the final minutes, the "Red Devils" staged a spectacular comeback in the World Cup Round of 32.
In the 120+5th minute, Belgium completed their historic comeback with the decisive goal, winning 3-2 and securing their place in the round of 16.
Youri Tielemans' goal in the 120+5th minute has also been confirmed as the latest goal in World Cup history.
According to Opta , Belgium became the first team in World Cup history to avoid defeat in regular time despite being 2-0 down in the 85th minute. Prior to this match, every team in a similar situation had to accept defeat.
All three of Belgium's goals in this match went down in history. In the 86th minute, Romelu Lukaku reduced the deficit after a cross from Thomas Meunier. Just 161 seconds later, captain Youri Tielemans headed in the equalizer, making it 2-2, thanks to a mistake by the Senegal defense.
Lukaku and Tielemans' goals came just 161 seconds apart, marking the first time Belgium have scored two goals in less than three minutes at a World Cup. This was also the fastest scoring streak in the Red Devils' history at the tournament.
The 2026 World Cup is delivering truly breathtaking matches. In more than half of the first knockout round matches, seven goals were scored after the 85th minute, constantly changing the course of the game and creating emotional chases for fans.
