Belgium made a remarkable revival as they came from the World Cup abyss and beat Japan to reach the quarter-finals.
Belgium go from 2-0 down to 3-2 up with last kick of the game
Japan hit two just after the break to take control
Vertonghen, Fellaini and Chadli set up quarter-final with Brazil
This is the first time a side has come from 2-0 down to win in the knockout stages since 1970, when Germany FR beat England 3-2.
It has only happened six times in history, including ‘The Miracle of Berne’ Final of 1954, when Germany FR beat Hungary.
Belgium’s Premier League stars – their golden generation – had put in a disappointing performance and Martinez turned to the oft-ridiculed Fellaini and West Brom winger Chadli in his hour of need.
Their fortunes changed after that as Vertonghen scored a looping header to get them back into the game.
Fellaini then headed in Hazard’s cross to level before Chadli converted Thomas Meunier’s pass to finish off a flowing move and help the Red Devils avoid being the latest victims of a World Cup of shocks.
Belgium become the first team to fight back from two goals down to win a World Cup knockout game since Germany against England in 1970.
