(Reuters) - Coach Roberto Martinez has hailed the rare talent of striker Romelu Lukaku, who will earn his 100th cap for Belgium in their World Cup qualifier at home to Czech Republic on Sunday, where a win could see them put one foot in the 2022 finals in Qatar.
Martinez has a long history with 28-year-old Lukaku that started when he signed the young striker for Everton in 2013, and hopes the current Chelsea forward will celebrate his milestone by adding to his 66 international goals.
