The world's number-one ranked side dominated proceedings in St Petersburg but only led through a late own goal from Finland keeper Lukas Hradecky, before Romelu Lukaku drilled a second. Finland slipped from second in Group B to third by virtue of Denmark's 4-1 win over Russia in Copenhagen and they must now wait to see whether they qualify as one of the four best third-placed teams. Finland keeper Hradecky was key in his side's resistance as he produced fine saves to deny Jeremy Doku and Eden Hazard. De Bruyne's contribution will please Belgium's followers given pre-tournament fitness doubts after he fractured his nose and eye socket in the Champions League final. The Manchester City midfielder had more touches than anyone on the pitch with 107, played more key passes (seven)than any player, and made a game-high five tackles.
