Man Utd midfielder Fellaini: It's been a great week

Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini is delighted with the week he's had.

Having penned a new two-year deal, Fellaini played a crucial role as Belgium defeated Japan in their World Cup round of 16 clash.

Fellaini reckons his dream summer can keep on getting better when Belgium face favourites Brazil in a World Cup quarter-final in Kazan on Friday.

“Yeah it's been a very good week, but the most important thing is we're through to the quarter-finals," he said. “It will be tough, we know the quality of Brazil, the quality of their players so it will be a good test for us. But I think we are a good group with good players and a good mentality. We're more mature than before.

“We have a big game on Friday and want to show everyone what we can do against Brazil."
