Kolo Muani opened the scoring.

83rd minute: Lukaku and De Bruyne combined very well before the Manchester City midfielder unleashed a powerful shot from outside the penalty area, but the ball went straight to Maignan.

71st minute: Lukaku unleashed a quick shot from the edge of the penalty area but couldn't beat Maignan.

65th minute: Belgium is still defending with focus. Mbappe and his teammates have had many good individual plays, but lack the sharpness to score the opening goal.

50th minute: Thuram had another chance to head the ball but he sent it over the crossbar. France are attacking better.

00:01: The second half begins!

First half ends! The two teams are temporarily tied 0-0. Belgium defended very well and caused difficulties for France, even though Les Bleus had more possession.

40th minute: Tchouameni takes a shot from a considerable distance, the ball narrowly missing the post.

34th minute: Thuram's header was dangerous but the ball went wide of the post.

25th minute: Griezmann and Rabiot receive yellow cards for fouls. Therefore, if France advances, Rabiot will be suspended for the quarter-finals.

22nd minute: France are looking for space and struggling to break down Belgium's well-organized defense. France have more possession but haven't created any chances yet.

15th minute: Tchouameni receives a yellow card for approaching the referee. The rule states that only the captain (Mbappe) is allowed to speak to or complain to the referee.

Minute 11: Belgium is using a 4-4-2 formation, intending to control the ball and play along a vertical axis. More time is needed to verify its effectiveness.

Minute 5: Both teams started slowly, probing each other's defenses. Both coaches Deschamps and Tedesco wanted to keep their wing forwards as close to the opponent's goal as possible.

Pre-match information :

This will be the 76th encounter between France and Belgium. France has faced Belgium almost twice as many times as any other team (39 times against Italy and Switzerland).

Les Bleus have won all four previous matches against Belgium in major tournaments (World Cup and EURO), scoring 13 goals and conceding only 3.

France have won their last two encounters with Belgium, with scores of 3-2 in the 2021 UEFA Nations League semi-final and 1-0 in the 2018 World Cup semi-final. Photo: UEFA

Neither France nor Belgium have reached their peak form at EURO 2024. It's difficult to predict how either team will perform in this match.

Despite a solid defense, Les Bleus have struggled since their opening match against Austria due to a lack of clinical finishing.

Perhaps the clash between Kylian Mbappe and Belgium's four-man defense will be the key factor in this match.

If Belgium wants to progress further, they will have to neutralize France's attacking threats and hope that Kevin de Bruyne maintains the form he has shown for his club.
