Chelsea star Eden Hazard will lead Belgium into a quarter-final against Wales but he admits giving a team talk is still his biggest challenge.

The 25 year old winger said: "It's a big honour to be captain and I'm very appreciative of it. But talking is the hard part for me. I am not a big talker.

"At the start it would make people laugh if I had to do a speech because I'm not really that used to talking a lot on the pitch or in the dressing room. It's something I've had to learn. But I try to do my best and I try not to say the same thing every match!"

Being captain of his country at such a young age has also helped him mature.

"I have changed a bit not just because I'm captain but because I am more experienced in international football," said Hazard, who has scored 14 goals in 69 games for his country.

"But I do take my role to heart, I try to do the best I can all the time, on the pitch and off it.

"As I say, I'm not always someone who makes a lot of noise off the pitch and motivates the players but when I'm on the pitch I try to be in charge on the ball and set an example for my team-mates."
