England vs France: Preview

For 26 years now, England have been talking about “football coming home” and victory against France will move them one step closer to achieving just that. It’s undoubtedly their biggest test of the tournament so far and is a game not many people can call.

England’s star man, Harry Kane, only netted his first goal of the tournament in the last round against Senegal while Kylian Mbappe, the main man for France, has already found the back of the net five times. What might benefit England is the fact that they have more players who can provide a goal threat aside from Kane while France are more reliant on the imperious Mbappe.

The match is likely to be won and lost in the middle of the park. While Jude Bellingham has enjoyed a fantastic tournament so far, the teenager will have a job on his hands against an energetic and technically skilled French midfield.
