**OUR BOY LAMMENS STEPS UP ON THE BIGGEST STAGE**
The World Cup just got very real for Senne Lammens, and every United fan watching will have their hearts in their mouths. Belgium’s starting keeper Thibaut Courtois had to leave the pitch with what looks to be a thigh injury during their World Cup quarterfinal against Spain — and the Belgian was visibly emotional as he walked off the field. Step forward our man Lammens, thrown into a cauldron at 1-1 with a World Cup semifinal spot on the line.
This is the sort of moment that defines careers. Courtois had been keeping Belgium in the game with five saves before his injury forced him off, so Lammens isn’t exactly walking into a quiet evening. Spain have been relentless, and now Belgium’s last line of defence is a keeper who only arrived at Old Trafford last summer.
But here’s the thing — we’ve seen what Lammens can do. He’s been quality between the sticks for United this season, and Lammens has more than proved himself at Manchester United this past season according to CNN’s coverage. Michael Carrick clearly rates him, and now the world gets to see why INEOS invested in the Belgian international.
The timing couldn’t be more dramatic. Belgium have already lost captain Youri Tielemans to a warm-up injury, they’re facing a Spanish side that hadn’t conceded in five-and-a-half matches at this tournament, and now their number one is gone. Lammens has to be flawless. No pressure, lad.
Whatever happens in California tonight, this is a massive showcase for our keeper. If Belgium can hold on and nick this, Lammens will return to Carrington as a national hero. Even if they fall short, stepping up in a World Cup quarterfinal is the kind of experience money can’t buy. Backs against the wall,World Cup dreams on the line — come on Senne, show them what United keepers are made of!
