then it really hits home kickoff time is almost upon us a colossal Game featuring two teams that truly deserve to be on the big stage we know they can deliver but will they do it with the pressure on and when it matters most complete coverage on the way with [Applause] eatv hello and thanks for joining live here on eatv I'm guy M joined by former England Striker smth on the commentary Gantry and with the atmosphere building up nicely what a match this promises to be it's Belgium taking on France cheers guy well it's a pleasure to be here and I'm anticipating a good game today the coaching staff have done all they can now it's about taking it onto the pitch this is the Belgium team Sheet well it looks 42 3-1 when they're in position may go to a 451 when defending You' think the double pivot in Midfield they're key to protect the back line but they also need to get forward to support the Press there's going to be plenty of threat from the wide midfielders to this is the France starting 11 Mike Manan is in goal Teo Hernandez starts well that's an own goal they'll take it of course whoever gets the end [Applause] credit well we see from the replay it's going to go down as an own goal you've got to feel for them here it's really unlucky to concede like that so it's one0 as the ball gets rolling again Lukaku the crowd urging him to shoot well when the fans want you to shoot it's tempting to do so but he might think twice next time yeah not the best effort to be fair it did open up for him he had the space just seemed to snatch at the shot though you'll have to think quickly here they're allowing space and he's finding it little sloppy on the ball nice bit of Defending there to put it out for a throw ibrahima canate and offside rules the assistant referee Tans a move of real promise now he'll try his luck and it's a that will be a free kick and what a place for it to be awarded it's wide close but no reward he manages to evade the wall well the connections good he's unlucky not to get a goal here they need to be better on the ball than that the goalkeeper more than ready for it over it comes and away it goes that's good strong play this is a good run now can he pick out the right option and the referee sees that as a foul free kick to come over them all to the back post the defensive job done for now he'll have a go here and the goalkeeper does what he's there to do and here it comes only half the job done Hernandez rabio they could level it here oh it was a great chance and it should have been taken well I'm not sure he'll get many chances better than that even the score he's going to be disappointed he couldn't put that one away and France regaining possession rabio in behind can he finish oh it's still in there real here off the crossbar and it's there the lead didn't last long they're back level already well we can see it again and it's a good initial shot but just look how aate he is here it's fantastic reactions desire and he gets the reward with the goal so it's w as the game restarts Tans they're not getting close enough here aurelan shui Griezmann rabio good patient buildup but not quite the end product having a try oh seeking his second goal but the keeper stops it he's certainly been bright getting himself into good positions on a regular base but this time the keeper equal to him something different from the corner pulls it back and that's nicely won to see off the threat rabio that's going to be a free kick and in a promising position too the first line of defense has worked and they've got it back now de bruer vout f a chance to get something going here but that's where any chance of anything developing disappears de bruyne that's a free kick and you couldn't choose many better spots for one [Music] and that's not the best effort it's a mped distance and he just doesn't connect with it right it's a long way off Target I wonder if he's going to take the next one Opa Mao and able to Come Away With The Ball moving forward under no real pressure out of play for a row and maybe just a lapsing concentration good challenge and a throw in to come mbappe the approach play looked encouraging but good defending to Snuff out any threat and possession given away de bruer amadu Onana onto rabio a little caress there as the ball changes hands com this is looking good now what comes next and well read just as it was looking promising kman he read that well stopping any danger out of play throw to come Tans now there could be a real chance developing oh the flag's up that will be offside Teo Hernandez keeping it nicely waiting for the chance to get themselves in front to put them ahead it's in and it's their game to lose from here well here's the replay and he does really well he takes his man on with ease and then once he's through there was never any doubt was there it's it hard and true and the keeper just can't react in time so it's 2-1 as the game restarts Onana Griezmann now and the ball has been lost de brua rabio has to be it's there and it's a goal that's a real settler for them two in front now well here's the replay and what a run this is they just couldn't get anywhere near him and then he manages to keep his call at the end and finishes it off well off we go then 3-1 the score now Tans decent move to be building but that's it for now Lukaku K the game brought to a halt a free kick given for that good work to regain possession oh he tried to put the hammer down on that one and the result wasn't pretty de bruer now a sense that something could happen from this having a look having a try but with that sort of chance you've just got to keep the ball much lower than he did there griezman de bruer France recovering possession well rabio Griezmann well it was looking good but ultimately nothing doing he's drifting into a useful position here oh it's still in there and it's held with a real sense of relief yeah he gathers it well at the second attempt but what a save initially it's a superb stop untiy in possession there well the effort never really looked like troubling the goalkeeper at all po attt in the end under a bit of pressure here moving forward well and and that's pretty straightforward for the keeper and the referee sees that as a foul free kick to come tans now there might be a chance as they keep it moving well it looked promising but only up to a point de bruyne layo and that's where it ends with possession lost so approaching the interval and France have played out an impressive first half here I think they'll be happy with the first half guy good performance from them played with a real intensity and quality and going into the break being up by two it's a huge positive and France have it back now rabio the ball is lost and the Chance has gone to tans that's cross the line it'll be a throwi in castan luko De bruer the pass was read and the ball has changed hands de bruer behind it goes for a corner well the team have struggled for long periods but this is a chance to get back into the game and you can tell the crowd sense it and they take a short Corner oh he caught that oh it's a penalty well no card just a warning and a fair few protestations well he's probably got away with that you can see why they'd expect the card to get back in this and he does the job from the spot well watching it again the word unlucky spring the keepers guess the right way got across the goal well but it's just Out Of Reach as it slips underneath really unfortunate so off we go 3-2 the score now and the work pays off as they get the ball back K moani France moving the ball forward with real purpose now oh he caught that with everything he's got but it's missed the Target only just too high Onana now de bruyne amadu Onana and that was not a good effort nor a good choice oh that's a poor attempt that he had other options and you can see his teammates are frustrated with him for attempting that given away by the goalkeeper Randall moani romelu Lukaku breaking at PACE this could be dangerous Rio now for the Finish oh that's fabulous from the goalkeeper yeah it is what a fantastic save that is he shows great power and Agility to get to it certainly one for the show real they take it short moving INF field here and that has gone over the top by quite a distance excellent reading of the game to win the ball pass de bruer they're not getting close enough here chance for The Equalizer and that was never likely to come down in time he just rushed it in the end didn't he he didn't show the composure needed when you threw on goal he'll be disappointed with that not a lot of time for him need to get tighter here he's done well to get past his marker showing good wi with this attack Tans they need to be better on the ball than that now this has to be the job not done yet and nothing coming from them the end rabio there's a chance for them to go now and maybe that was a bit of a misconnection it's far far too high Tans Kevin De bruyne onto tielemans Lukaku could be a chance and the goalkeeper does what he's there to do well it's the first chance that they've had in a while and proud is sensing this is a great opportunity they're really getting behind them into the box it goes and there's still danger here and that whistle brings the first half to a close well he's produced a masterful performance up to this point 10 out of 10 well he's been outstanding hasn't he he's taken his goals so well but it's everything about his play that's quality wouldn't surprise me if he gets his hat-trick in the second half
