De Bruyne happy to let Lukaku and Co. do the damage for Belgium

The Manchester City star feels a comprehensive friendly triumph over Saudi Arabia is further proof of the progress being made by World Cup hopefuls

Kevin De Bruyne feels Belgium are improving in good time for the World Cup after a commanding 4-0 friendly win over Saudi Arabia on Tuesday.

Belgium were dominant from the off and secured a comfortable victory through a Romelu Lukaku brace and goals from Michy Batshuayi and midfielder De Bruyne.

And the Manchester City star was pleased with his side's performance, noting the improvement from last year's friendlies when Roberto Martinez's side drew with Mexico and edged past Japan.
