France v Belgium

[Brin]

Nice cracking open game.

No South American antics just honest players wanting to get on with it.

Shows what we will be up against if we get to the final.

Great saves from Lloris and Courtois.

Looks like Hazard is on fire and ripping though the French defence at will.

Giroud has had his chances like I say a good open game.

Not seen owt to be freetened of to be honest. Harry Maguire would have Mbappe in his pocket.

Honest players France wasted 15 of the last 20mins.Play acting.

Assured second half defensive performance from France though, with Belgium allowed no clear chances . One goal was enough to get them to the final

[Pattylallacks2]

That must be de Bruyne's worst ever performance.

France look pretty solid, stopped a very potent attacking force and restricted them to the odd long range shot.

That must be de Bruyne's worst ever performance.

Hazard, Fellaini and Lukaku were pretty poor too.

[mellowmiller]

Yep, Varane was outstanding and that's the best game I've seen Pogba have for ages.
