Twitter users watching the match against Team USA tonight seem to think that Belgium’s Kevin De Bruyne looks like Prince Harry:

Others got the joke early on:
A Modern Family star has weighed in:
People are saying Prince Harry looks like Kevin De Bruyne on the Belgium team. I disagree. I think Kevin De Bruyne looks like Prince Harry.

And GMA has clearly just decided to go with it:
Prince Harry is out to destroy America. He plays in Lukaku and it’s 2-0. Sad, instrumental Barry Manilow music plays. 2-0 #BEL - @soccergods

Lukaku makes an immediate impact as a sub, turning the corner on Besler and passing to Prince Harry who goes far post. 1-0 #BEL- @soccergods
