Belgium manager Roberto Martinez believes his side will be ready to handle the threat posed by France starlet Kylian Mbappe.

The World Cup has seen Mbappe explode onto the international scene, with his stunning performances propelling the team to a semi final berth.

He is seen as the key attacking threat, supplemented by the likes of Olivier Giroud, Antoine Griezmann and Paul Pogba.

But Belgium will be prepared according to their coach.

"We will need to anticipate him [Mbappe] and be well-positioned," said Martinez to ESPN.

"We need to defend spaces more than the player himself. But we are not going to forget the others since France has a very complete attacking pattern."
