Did you see the SHOCKING thing Eden Hazard did in Belgium friendly? WATCH
THIS is the moment Eden Hazard was seen pushing Belgium team-mate Yannick Carrasco off the ball during their friendly against Costa Rica.
Belgium breezed past Costa Rica last night in their final warm-up match ahead of the World Cup in Russia.
But fans were left shocked by captain Eden Hazard midway through the second half.
In the 60th minute of the game when Belgium were 3-1 up, Hazard and Carrasco both ran for the ball on the far side of the pitch.
And Hazard was so determined to keep possession that he shoved team-mate Carrasco off the ball before passing to another Belgium player in the final third.

Fans were shocked with Hazard and quickly took to Twitter to slam the Chelsea ace.
“Disrespectfulness… Hazard pushes carrasco away,” one fan wrote.
Another said: “This Belgium golden era is a joke. Hazard pushes yannick carrasco away to get the ball. Pathetic.”
Hazard later hobbled off in the 70th minute after taking a blow to the foot, but Martinez insists the injury is not serious.
“Eden is okay, he had a little trouble, but it's nothing to worry about,” Martinez said.

“I really enjoyed his performance. He was sharp and strong, he was majestic.
“At the end he just came off because he had a little bit of a dead leg, a little bit of a knock on his leg.”
Roberto Martinez's side face Panama in their opening Group G match on Monday before facing Tunisia and England.
Despite having an all-star squad which boast Premier League stars Hazard, Kevin De Bruyne, Romelu Lukaku and co, Belgium have failed to deliver on the international stage in recent times.
They suffered a shock 3-1 defeat in the quarter-finals at Euro 2016 and with the tournament in Russia just days away, the pressure is mounting on the Red Devils.
