Kevin de Bruyne's Brace Leads Belgium to Win Over Israel in Hungary Opener.

Soccer

Kevin de Bruyne scored twice to lead Belgium to a 2-0 victory over Israel in a behind-closed-doors match in Hungary, marking a strong start to their UEFA Nations League campaign.

Due to security concerns related to the Israel-Gaza conflict, several Belgian cities declined to host the home game. 

In October, a gunman killed two Swedes before Belgium's Euro 2024 qualifier against Sweden at the King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels, which typically hosts most of their matches.

In Debrecen, Kevin de Bruyne gave Belgium the lead with a sidefooted finish from a Jeremy Doku cutback. 

However, Israel equalized when Anan Khalaili’s header deflected off Timothy Castagne and into the net.
