Man City ace De Bruyne felt at his best against Brazil

Manchester City midfielder Kevin de Bruyne felt he was at his best for Belgium's World Cup win over Brazil.

The Blues ace was man of the match as the Red Devils saw off Brazil 2-1 and booked a place in the World Cup semi-finals.

“I have to do what I have to do to win, I do not care where I have to play, and if I'm deep, it's harder for me to be in front of goal but it does not matter," he said.

“Everyone was relaxed with the ball, without taking any risks, we sometimes wanted to go too fast but at other times we developed very good football.

“In the field, I try to manage the team, to give directions to my teammates."
