Belgium have been eliminated from the World Cup following their disappointing 0-0 draw to Croatia on Thursday.The world's second-ranked side were left to rue a series of missed chances by Romelu Lukaku in the second half as they went out after scoring only one goal in three Group F matches.

Belgium saw their run of reaching at least the quarter-finals at four straight major tournaments come to an abrupt end. With the squad boasting the likes of Eden Hazard, Kevin De Bruyne, and Romelu Lukaku, to name a few, Belgium's "Golden Generation" will likely end without major silverware.Here are some reactions from Twitter:  Our 2022 World Cup ends tonight. #CROBEL #DEVILTIME pic.twitter.com/EaiGyTAAoQLukaku has almost single-handedly ensured that Belgium don’t qualify.

I’ve never seen anything like this… how do you miss three sitters in one half?!?!Belgium's golden generation ends with no World Cup trophy ??????
