The Everton ace was in fine form on international duty.
Romelu Lukaku has singled out Belgium team-mates Eden Hazard and Kevin De Bruyne for praise following the 3-0 win over Cyprus on Tuesday night.
Roberto Martinez's side bounced back from the 2-0 friendly defeat by Spain last week by kicking off their World Cup qualification campaign in style last night.
The Everton hitman netted the first two goals within the hour mark, before Yannick Ferreira-Carrasco fattened the lead on 83 minutes in Nicosia.
But Chelsea's Hazard and Manchester City playmaker De Bruyne also starred in the victory, and the Toffees ace reserved praise for the Premier League stars in an interview with RTBF afterwards.
He said: "Eden made the difference, Kevin [De Bruyne] had a very good game, the defence was excellent. We scored three goals, we didn't concede any. In short, we started very well."
Everton fans will be delighted to see Lukaku back among the goals. The 23-year-old, the Toffees' top goalscorer last season with 25 in all competitions, has not found the net in any of his three outings this season, but his brace in Cyprus may spark him back into life following a transfer window in which he was heavily rumoured to leave.
