The Foxes No.8 captained Belgium on Saturday night in Dublin.

The visitors were back in front when Hans Vanaken, creator of the opening goal, was on target just before the hour mark, before Alan Browne levelled matters with five minutes to play.

Later on in the evening, in another international friendly, this time at the Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam, Kasper Schmeichel and Vestergaard both started against the Netherlands, with the latter scoring his first international goal for over six years.
