video: Belgium 8 – 1 Estonia [2018 World Cup Qualifier] Highlights 2016

The Napoli winger stole the show for the Red Devils who cemented their place at the top of the group with a convincing triumph

Dries Mertens stole the show by having a hand in four goals as Belgium thrashed Estonia 8-1 in World Cup qualifying to capitalise on Greece’s draw with Bosnia-Herzegovina and take charge of Group H.

Roberto Martinez’s men were dominant from start to finish in a deserved victory and, while Romelu Lukaku also caught the eye, Mertens was on another level, scoring twice and setting up another two in an eye-catching display in Brussels.

Things looked ominous for Estonia very early on as Belgium cruised intoa comfortable 2-0 lead inside 16 minutes thanks to goals from Thomas Meunier and Mertens.
