Belgium coach Roberto Martinez said Eden Hazard and Kevin De Bruyne will both undergo scans on Monday to diagnose the extent of their injuries suffered in Sunday's 1-0 win over Portugal at Euro 2020.

Belgium’s Spanish coach Roberto Martinez speaks with Belgium’s midfielder Kevin De Bruyne after being forced off with an injury during the UEFA EURO 2020 round of 16 football match between Belgium and Portugal at La Cartuja Stadium in Seville on June 27, 2021.

“We need 48 hours to find out the extent of the injuries,” said Martinez. “KDB is his ankle, it was a really bad tackle. Eden is more of a muscle feeling. We will go back to Belgium tonight and do scans tomorrow.” Portugal pushed in the second half but the reigning champions failed to muster an equaliser, with Cristiano Ronaldo unable to add to his five goals in the competition.“In the second half more of the momentum went to Portugal and we showed an incredible mentality. We had to be very disciplined, tactically astute.

Martinez said his team showed an ability to “suffer” and reserved special praise for his defensive trio of Toby Alderweireld, Jan Vertonghen and Thomas Vermaelen.
