Intro:

Fernandinho spoke in a news conference in Teresopolis on Monday as Brazil started preparations to face Colombia in the quarter-finals.

Script:

SOUNDBITE: (Portuguese) Fernandinho, Brazil midfielder (on what he expects at quarter-finals):

"I think it will be a tough match, like the one against Chile. From now on we can't have any fantasies and hope for easy games. When we have been advancing, new opponents have been appearing and everybody can expect tough matches. We will work this week for it, expecting a very tough, skilled team. We will have to be ale to overcome all these adversities."

SOUNDBITE: (Portuguese) Fernandinho, Brazil midfielder (on James Rodriguez):

"If I am not mistaken it was James Rodriguez's first season in Europe. He was not at the starting line-up of his team. But he entered during the match. But even from that time he was showing his skills. He has very good control of the ball. He has very good shots. At this World Cup, he has shown everybody that the money AS Monaco spent on him from Porto was very worth of it."

SOUNDBITE (Portuguese) Fernandinho, Brazil midfielder (on France):

"France is a very good team. They have excellent players. And maybe the main player is (Paul) Pogba, the midfielder. He is very skilful, a player that could be in attack and shoot on goal. he managed to score with a header today. Maybe, among all the players in the French National team, he's the main one."
