Kevin De Bruyne has yet to truly shine like he’s capable of at the World Cup yet, but Belgium boss Roberto Martinez believes he’s still been essential to the team’s success.

The midfielder has one assist through two games, with Belgium going a perfect 3-0 in the group stages.

“He has been a little bit a top performer that has not been highlighted yet. And he’s essential for the way that we want to play,” Martinez said of De Bruyne.

Martinez also spoke of Belgium’s confidence going into the last 16. See his full comments below.
