ROB: WE’RE READY

ROBERTO MARTINEZ insisted his Belgium side are primed for the tough tests ahead after they saw off England.

The Belgians now travel to Rostov on Monday to play Japan. The winners will face either Brazil or Mexico in the quarter-final next Friday.

Martinez (left) made nine changes from the side that beat Tunisia last Sunday and said: “You cannot plan the ideal scenario. You’ve seen big nations already eliminated. We need to look at ourselves, we are a stronger group than we were before the game. We’ve got to be ready for Japan.”

England striker Marcus Rashford said: “We played against a good team with a strong identity and way of playing. We’ve not played against that system much since we’ve been in our system, so it’s a good test for us.”
