Origi and Benteke feature as Belgium win in Switzerland
Divock Origi and Christian Benteke featured as Belgium came from behind to record a 2-1 victory over Switzerland in a friendly encounter in Bern on Saturday afternoon.
Origi came on as a 67th minute replacement for Dries Metens, while Benteke arrived as a late swap for Marouane Fellaini for the final five minutes. Simon Mignolet remained on the bench.
Blerim Dzemaili had fired the hosts into the lead only to see it cancelled out by Romelu Lukaku’s close range effort on 34 minutes.
The winning goal came in the 82nd minute courtesy of a fantastic strike from Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne.
Origi almost made it 3-1 in the last minute of the game only to see his stunning overhead kick brilliantly kept out by Swiss stopper Yann Sommer.
