PARIS, June 8 (AP/UNB) : Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini scored twice as Belgium produced a scintillating attacking display to win 4-3 away to France on Sunday.
With the European Championship one year away, Belgium - second in FIFA's rankings - will certainly be one of the team's to watch.
Even more so after this accomplished performance against World Cup quarterfinalist France, which scored two late consolation goals to soften a humiliating defeat.
Fellaini pounced with a close-range finish and a powerful header to put Belgium 2-0 up at halftime and take his international tally to five in the past three games, before Roma midfielder Radja Nainggolan made it 3-0 shortly after the break.
