Euro2016: Belgium star Hazard admits Wales are 'complicated side to play against'

Belgium star Eden Hazard has admitted that Wales will be a tricky opposition to play against.

One of the pre-tournament favourites for Euro2016, Belgium have been handed a quarter-final draw against the Welsh and the match is sure to be an enticing encounter.

Given the immense quality in their side, Belgium certainly head into the clash as favourites but star man Hazard has admitted that the battle against Wales will not be an easy one having lost to the Dragons during qualifying.

"They're a complicated side to play against. We played them in the qualifiers, we haven't beaten them I don't think," the Chelsea star said after starring in Sunday's 4-0 Round of 16 win over Hungary.

"They're quite a compact side with a star player up front [Gareth Bale] so we're going to have to study them well and try to do our best to win this match."
