France were impressive earlier on Sunday, beating Poland 3-0 and the all-European clash in the quarters now looks beautifully poised, the only problem is we have nearly a week to wait!

France have been impressive in Qatar so far, topping Group D after beating Australia and Denmark, with defeat to Tunisia with a much-changed team not damaging them.
Didier Deschamps’ side faced Poland in the last 16 and again looked good, with Olivier Giroud opening the scoring before a Kylian Mbappe brace.
The Paris Saint-Germain striker took his tally in Qatar to five with those two goals against the Poles, and England will be well aware of the extremely potent threat he poses.
