Baby in red as Fellaini, Mertens play name game

A Belgium football fan was so overjoyed by his team's World Cup win over Algeria that he named his new-born baby after goal-scorers Marouane Fellaini and Dries Mertens, Belgian media reported.

The baby, born in Ghent, will be called Titus Marouane Dries, said the proud dad who added: "If we had scored five goals, he would have had five first names." 

"Titus Marouane Dries won't really use his these two names but they are a story which we will never forget."
