KALININGRAD, Russia — Michy Batshuayi’s celebration after Belgium’s goal at the World Cup has drawn plenty of laughs online.
The Borussia Dortmund striker scooped up the ball after Adnan Januzaj scored Thursday and kicked it hard — probably aiming for the net. Instead, it hit the post and rebounded onto his face.
He did not appear to be injured, though his pride may have been hurt.
