Romelu Lukaku took his anger out on a dugout window after Belgium crashed out of the Qatar World Cup.
The Chelsea striker, currently on loan at Inter Milan, missed several chances as Belgium were held to a 0-0 draw by Croatia in their final group game.
The result sees Belgium – who finished third in Russia four years ago – finish third in Group F and exit the World Cup before the knockout stages.
Belgium secured a narrow win over Canada in their game of the World Cup before suffering a shock defeat to Morocco.
Roberto Martinez’s side, currently ranked second in the world, produced another lacklustre display against Croatia when a win would have sent them through to the last 16.
Lukaku started on the bench but missed numerous chances in the second half after coming on at half-time.
Chelsea’s record signing struck the post, headed over, poked wide and reacted too late when presented with virtually an open goal in stoppage time.
Lukaku broke down in tears after the final whistle and was consoled by Arsenal legend Thierry Henry, who is part of Martinez’s coaching team in Qatar.
But the striker’s sorrow soon turned to anger as he punched a dugout window on his way back to the dressing room, dislodging a piece of glass in the process.
