IT wouldn’t look out of place as the final game so having Brazil play Belgium in the quarter finals in Russia is certainly something to savour.
Neymar, Paulinho, Coutinho v De Bruyne, Hazard, Lukaku ... it simply doesn’t get any better.
Belgium coach Roberto Martinez is definitely excited - but also wary of Brazil’s World Cup pedigree.
“The two sides are very similar in terms of the qualities we have,” said Martinez.
“The difference is, we haven’t won a World Cup. It’s as simple as that.
“They know how to win World Cups, they’ve done it more than any other nation so they have that psychological barrier out of the way.
“When we see the colour yellow, we’re very proud. We’re going to be very excited to see Brazil in front of us.”
