Thibaut Courtois and Eden Hazard were a couple of star performers for Belgium as they defeated Brazil for a place in the semi-finals of the World Cup.
The European side were the better team and won the game 2-1, thanks to an own goal from Fernandinho and a rocket from former Blues star Kevin de Bruyne.
Brazil did get one back from Renato Augusto but Willian’s side just could not break down the Belgium defence and with Courtois in fine form, the Europeans will now play France for a place in the finals of the World Cup.
Hazard was truly brilliant as he kept winning free-kicks and made life difficult for the Brazilians.
The Chelsea Twitter handle was quick to praise the pair and even Michy Batshuayi. Given the circumstances, we are guaranteed to see a Chelsea player in the World Cup final as it could be either Olivier Giroud or the Belgium trio.
The Chelsea fans were quick to praise the stars too and here are some of the best reactions from the game.
