Fans mock Romelu Lukaku after striker botches chance to score easy tap-in for Belgium

Romelu Lukaku netted a brace against Scotland on Tuesday night but he came under-fire on social media for failing to score from close range.

Kevin De Bruyne played the ball across to Lukaku and the Manchester United striker tried to flick the ball home.

However, the striker managed to hit the ball onto his other foot rather than ensure his shot headed towards Scotland's goal.
