Vincent Kompany says Belgium will have “no fear” when they face five-time World Cup winners Brazil.
Belgium pulled off a stunning victory, coming from 2-0 down to beat Japan 3-2 in the last 16 to set up a quarter-final clash with the favourites.

But Manchester City skipper Kompany said Belgium’s players believe the time has come to fulfil their huge potential and seize their chance.

“For this generation, this is the most important date with history,” said Kompany.

“The great thing about this generation of Belgians is that we’re not afraid, that we have faith.“We live to get the maximum out of this group, out of our potential, and this will be a special match.

“I would have preferred Brazil in the final, but let Friday’s match be our final.”

Kompany also said his friendship with City team-mate and Brazil striker Gabriel Jesus will be put to one side as they battle each other.

“I’ll give Gabriel a hug before the match, after which the friendship will be over for a while,” said Kompany.

Belgium is blessed with an abundance of attacking talent that includes Premier League trio Eden Hazard, Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku.

And Kompany, set to keep his place in defence after making his first start of the tournament against Japan, said Belgium won’t change their style against Brazil.

“We have a certain way of playing that always remains the same,” said Kompany.

“We’re strong offensively, but Brazil is the strongest team on an individual level that I’ve seen here.

“Their defenders are solid and they have very strong attackers. But it’s a collective sport, so we can do something about that collectively.”

Ok. I have heard. I will place my bet on your shining round head. Just no reflect my account to zero.
