Romelu Lukaku faced heartbreak as cutting-edge sound technology ruled out his goal, leaving Belgium stunned in their Euro 2024 clash against Slovakia. Trailing 1-0 after Ivan Schranz's early strike, Lukaku thought he'd equalized, only to have his joy shattered by a VAR decision. The new sound-detecting tech, reminiscent of cricket's snickometer, confirmed that teammate Lois Openda handled the ball before the cross. Referee Umut Meler's consultation with VAR deemed Openda's arm in an unnatural position, marking Lukaku's second disallowed goal of the game. Despite the crushing defeat, Belgium must regroup for upcoming matches against Romania and Ukraine.

Will Belgium bounce back from the heartbreak of Lukaku's disallowed goals?
