Wales boss Chris Coleman: 'Belgium do not scare us'

Wales manager Chris Coleman has insisted that his players have nothing to fear when they take on Belgium in the quarter-finals of Euro 2016 on Friday in Lille.

The Belgians are expected to provide a stern test for Wales after they impressed in a 4-0 win over Hungary in the last-16 stage on Sunday night.

Wales secured progression into the final eight thanks to a single own goal from Northern Ireland's Gareth McAuley.

Coleman is aware of the size of the challenge ahead, but has insisted that he will not be focusing on stopping individual players, mainly Chelsea's Eden Hazard, who has been on top form in France.

"If you go too open against Belgium they'll go through you like a knife through butter," Coleman told reporters. "The way they play, they have good players on the pitch and a bench that would grace any international team, but in the last four years we've had four meetings, losing one, drawing two and winning the last one, there is nothing to be afraid of for us.

"We have faced all different types of opposition in this tournament, different challenges and this is another. Our game plan has to stay the way it is. Belgium are a good team, that's why they're here, but that's why we are here. With Eden Hazard you can spend a month in defensive situations with your team to try to stop a player like that and in a split second he can disappoint your plans. He is very good player.

"My players have faced Eden Hazard before. We are looking forward to being on the pitch with a player of his standard. It is a huge test. Will we have special plans for Eden? No."

Wales have scored six goals, winning three of their four games in the competition so far.
