Belgium produced a dramatic World Cup turnaround as Youri Tielemans scored a 125th-minute penalty to beat Senegal 3-2 after extra time in the last 32. Senegal had led 2-0 and looked set for a last-16 meeting with either the United States or Bosnia-Herzegovina before Belgium’s late surge changed the tie.

The decisive moment arrived deep into added time at the end of extra time. Tielemans went down under a challenge from Lamine Camara, and play continued until Dodi Lukebakio struck the crossbar. VAR then instructed a review, spotted Camara’s lunge, and awarded the penalty that Tielemans fired into the top-right corner.

That spot-kick, officially timed at 124 minutes and 44 seconds, entered World Cup history. Opta recorded it as the latest goal ever scored in the tournament. Belgium’s captain had already dragged the team level in normal time after another key intervention from VAR and a costly mistake by goalkeeper Mory Diaw.
