    Stadium not full.

    Giroud a handful as is Hazard both teams looking dangerous but neither dominating.

    Ridiculous talent and composure for his age - that first time cross for Giroud was awesome

    Surprised one or two people on here aren't demanding we sign him....

    Giroud is France’s Sterling. Bit of a nuisance but **** all else. Hasn’t even hit the target this tournament.

    Dude, you've gone and done it now. If we beat Croatia and France get through this, you just know whats going to happen. Tut tut.

    I’m hoping my relentless slaying of Raheem will see him bag a double to offset any Giroud goal.

    The way to get at France is down the flanks. They've defended crosses quite well though.

    Mbappé is a cracking player but these commentators are going way overboard. Why not just go down and suck him off and be done with it?

    Decent dive from Pogba there.

    Should have given Mbappe a slap there.

    France it is then. I thought it was an even game, France got a bit of luck with the deflected header and that really was the difference.

    France are a good team but watching that game they’re not unbeatable. Now we just need to make sure we don’t blow it against Croatia. Start as we did against Tunisia and no lapses of concentration should see us through.

    How many crosses did Belgium put in from their right during the second half? Time after time. They just needed someone to get on the end of them.

    Tough game tomorrow night. Probably playing a side on a similar level to France and Belgium. They have the best central midfielder in the world over the last few years.
