Kazan will host Brazil and Belgium as they battle it out for a place in the World Cup semi-finals against France on Friday.

Neymar and Co are hot the favourites to lift the trophy in Moscow, but they are unlikely to have it all their own way against a massively talented side.

39min: Belgium 2-0 Brazil

27min: Belgium 1-0 Brazil

A slight improvement from Brazil but Belgium are still defending every well as they block two shots including one from Neymar.

27min: Belgium 1-0 Brazil

Brazil forward Neymar has momentarily left the pitch and it looks like a problem with his calf.

25min: Belgium 1-0 Brazil

Brazil look a bit slow right now. They have a lot of the ball but the most dangerous team in attack is Belgium when they break on the counter attack.

23min: Belgium 1-0 Brazil

Before the tournament there were questions over this Belgium defence, but after a sloppy start they have rather nullified the Brazil attack so far.

13 goals for #BEL at this #WorldCup - a @BelRedDevils record! #BRABEL 0-1 pic.twitter.com/WNP4wX1P9e

21min: Belgium 1-0 Brazil

Belgium now look the better team as they almost doubled their lead.

20min: Belgium 1-0 Brazil

Coutinho has scored a couple as he eyes up another from 25 yards out but the strike bounces nicely into the hands of goalkeeper Courtois.

Slightly against the run of play that but the early signs suggest Belgium will have a tough ask to keep a clean sheet for the remainder of this game.

13min: Belgium 1-0 Brazil

GOAL!!! BELGIUM take an early lead thanks to Fernandinho’s own goal.

11min: Belgium 0-0 Brazil

If Thiago Silva misses you don't want on the end of a corner, then the next in line would be Paulinho.

What a start! Brazil should be ahead! A corner falls for Thiago Silva two yards from goal, but not expecting the ball to fall to him he can only help it onto the post.

Fellaini trying to be sneaky to put pressure on Neymar as he ends up elbowing the Brazilian in the back of the head.
