Eden Hazard didn't make it off the bench as Belgium beat Iceland 5-1 on Tuesday night.
The Real Madrid forward hasn't featured in either of Belgium's Nations League matches this month.
"He's still not at full fitness," Belgium boss Roberto Martinez said of his captain before Tuesday's game.
"We're not going to take any risks."
Martinez kept to his word, but Hazard's absence from action raises further concerns about his recovery from the ankle injury that plagued him last season.

Can't believe Hazard has been relegated to the bench nowadays??? WTH he should rediscover his old self real quick before things go south for him. New season is almost here and his Club needs him before the crazy judgement starts kicking in.
