Minute 83: Lukaku and De Bruyne had a very good coordination before the Man City midfielder shot very hard from outside the penalty area, but the ball went straight to Maignan.
Minute 71: Lukaku kicked very quickly on the edge of the penalty area but could not beat Maignan.
Minute 65: Belgium is still defending with concentration. Mbappe and his teammates have many good individual moves, but lack the sharpness to get the opening goal.
Minute 50: Thuram has another chance to head the ball but he sends it over the bar. France are attacking better.
00:01: Second half begins!
Half-time! The two teams are tied at 0-0. Belgium defended very well and caused trouble for France, even though Les Bleus had more possession.
Minute 40: Tchouameni shot from quite a distance, the ball missed the post by a hair.
Minute 34: Thuram headed the ball dangerously but it went wide of the post.
Minute 25: Griezmann and Rabiot received yellow cards for fouling their opponents. So if France advances, Rabiot will be suspended for the quarter-finals.
22nd minute: France are finding space and struggling to break down Belgium's well-organised defence. France have more possession but have yet to create any chances.
Minute 15: Tchouameni received a yellow card for approaching the referee. The rule is that only the captain (Mbappe) is allowed to talk and complain to the referee.
Minute 11: Belgium is using a 4-4-2 formation, intending to control the ball and play vertically. More time is needed to verify its effectiveness.
Minute 5: Both teams started slowly and probed their opponents. Both coaches Deschamps and Tedesco wanted to keep their wingers as close to the opponent's goal as possible.
23:00: The match begins!
Pre-match information :
This will be the 76th meeting between France and Belgium. France have faced Belgium almost twice as many times as any other team (39 times against Italy and Switzerland).
Les Bleus have won all four of their previous meetings with Belgium at major tournaments (World Cup and EURO), scoring 13 goals and conceding just three.
Both France and Belgium have not reached their peak form at EURO 2024. It is difficult to predict how the two teams will perform in this match.
Despite a solid defence, a lack of luck in front of goal has seen Les Bleus struggle since their opening game against Austria.
Perhaps the confrontation between Kylian Mbappe and Belgium's back four will be the key factor in this match.
If Belgium are to go any further they will have to neutralize France's attacks and hope Kevin de Bruyne can maintain the form he has shown for his club.
