Arda Güler scores from 30 metres and De Bruyne is full of praise
Belgium beat Turkey 2-1, while Güler's strike from distance earned praise from Kevin De Bruyne and Senne Lammens.
Arda Güler produced a stunning free kick in Turkey's 2-1 defeat to Belgium, curling it into the top corner from more than 30 metres out. It was not enough to save his side, but Belgian goalkeeper Senne Lammens admitted that sometimes you can only applaud the opponent.
The biggest admirer was Kevin De Bruyne, who sought Güler out in the tunnel after the final whistle to congratulate him. «He told me he had been following my matches and that the free kick was incredible. He didn't believe I could score from so far away», explained the Real Madrid midfielder, who was touched by the compliments.
This season, Güler has four goals and seven assists in 14 appearances for Real Madrid, according to MARCA.
