When we entered the stadium during the warm-up matches, we already felt the support of the fans, which gives us extra motivation and makes you play better. You know how important this team is to the people of this city and as a player you represent the whole city and it was a great experience."
Career Turning Point:
Anderlecht's first goal
: Lukaku remembers his experience at Anderlecht: "For me, the first goal at Anderlecht was a turning point, I made the best possible start and completely changed my life. I was playing for my city at the time and we won the title in our first season."
Most memorable goal:
Shutout goal against Lecce
: Asked by the media about his most memorable goal at Roma, Lukaku replied: "The most memorable goal in a Roma shirt? It was the goal in our 2-1 win over Lecce. At the time Dybala gave a great assist and then I scored the goal." In the 11th round of Serie A last November, Lukaku conceded a first-half penalty but scored the winner in the fourth minute of full-time stoppage time after receiving a pass from Dybala.
Fan support and future outlook:
