France are through to the semis, meeting Morocco.

F.T: England 1 Vs 2 France

90′ + 11′ CLOSE! Rashford coolly steps up and he whips the freekick over the wall. There isn’t enough dip on the shot though and it lands on the roof of the net, much to the static Lloris’ relief.

85‘ England are making their third change following that penalty miss. It’s Foden that’s going off for Rashford.

84′ KANE MISSES! He blazed it high over the bar and into the stands. Still 2-1 France!

82′ Hernandez is protesting his innocence but that won’t stop him from being shown a yellow card.

82′ PENALTY TO ENGLAND! VAR have a look at the incident and then ask the referee to go over to see it himself. It’s a blatant push by Hernandez with the ball nowhere near him and England have another spot-kick.

78′ GIROUD SCORES! And France restore their lead! Giroud just gets in front of Maguire to thump a header past Pickford at the near post. 2-1 France!

60′ SAVE! Saka drops deep and spins to find the space open up ahead of him. He drives into the box again, brushing off Tchouameni but the shot at the end lets him down as he scuffs it straight at Lloris.

59′ Kane has scored his 53rd goal for England, taking him level with Wayne Rooney as the highest scorer for the men’s side.

55′ GOOD SAVE! Kounde goes long and picks out Rabiot, who is in acres of space through the middle. England are caught out and he drills a low shot on goal from range, but Pickford gets down to push it away.

54′ KANE SCORES! It’s a brilliant spot-kick as he fires it to the left, sending Lloris the wrong way to pull England level. 1-1!

52′ PENALTY TO ENGLAND! Saka is starting to get some joy down the right and he plays a clever one-two with Bellingham as he cuts inside. He draws Tchouameni out to him and is clipped. The referee points straight to the spot.

45′ + 5′ HALF-TIME: ENGLAND 0-1 FRANCE
45′ + 4′ Foden’s corner is over everyone and France quickly win it back. Bellingham steps in to win it off Hernandez, who stays down, but he’s able to get back to his feet without treatment.
45′ + 2′ Upamecano wins it off Kane again, and he looks to set Mbappe on the counter. He switches it out to Griezmann on the right, but England quickly get back into their shape to smother the attack.
45′ Bellingham gets the better of Kounde down the left and manages to squeeze a cross in. Kane is surrounded by four blue shirts in the middle, though, and Rabiot clears his lines.
39‘ France win a free-kick in midfield and Griezmann plays it short to Dembele. He threads it through for Hernandez, who pulls it back to Mbappe, but he fires it high over the bar.
17′ TCHOUAMENI SCORES! He fires through Bellingham’s legs and into the bottom-left corner. 1-0 France!
1‘ The Referee blows the kickoff whistle with Griezmann getting the match underway for France.
