De Bruyne, Fellaini And Hazard On Song For Belgium
However, Manchester United’s Marouane Fellaini headed home from a Kevin de Bruyne corner eight minutes later.
“The medical team will see how the injury develops”, said Belgium manager Marc Wilmots.
Belgium are second in Group B after the win, three points behind Wales, while Bosnia-Herzegovina are fifth.
The Red Devils welcome Bosnia-Herzegovina who have never featured at a European Championships, but made a World Cup debut past year. That would still be good enough to book their place in France next summer, but with Israel and Cyprus only a couple of points further back, they can ill-afford to ease up already. If they manage to avoid defeat in Belgium, their hopes of seeing Euro will still be very much alive. The game ended 1-1 as Dzeko’s opener was cancelled out by Radja Nainggolan.
After former Manchester City’s striker and once the record holder for biggest signing, Edin Dzeko put Bosnia up front in Brussels, there was huge pressure on Belgium.
The Belgians have not lost a competitive fixture on home turf since 2010.
Medunjanin was at the heart of his side’s next attack – robbing Vincent Kompany of possession in midfield and playing in Dzeko – but the forward’s goal-bound strike was deflected wide.
Benteke’s injury means Everton striker Romelu Lukaku could start against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Also, Mousa Dembele is missing due to an ankle problem.
Bosnia finally forced Thibaut Courtois into action just prior to the hour mark, the Chelsea stopper doing well to parry away Medunjanin’s rasping volley.
