Last night, France once again demonstrated why they are considered the top favourites to win the World Cup. Morocco held firm during the opening half, with Yassine Bounou denying Kylian Mbappe’s penalty, but the six-minute blitzkrieg after the break sealed the Atlas Lions’ World Cup fate.Les Bleus were dominant throughout the game, and it seemed only a matter of time before they broke their rivals’ resistance.Mbappe and Dembele too strong for the Atlas LionsFollowing the 2-0 triumph, everyone in France is naturally satisfied, and the confidence is sky-high ahead of the semi-finals against one of their neighbours, either Spain or Belgium.

One set of rules applies to the Americans, and another to everyone else. When President Donald Trump calls Gianni Infantino, everything is interpreted differently—suspensions can be lifted and replaced with suspended punishments. But in every other case, the rules are enforced as written. Mercy is only possible when the U.S. president gets involved, not when football associations submit appeals. England asked FIFA to overturn Jarell Quansah’s red card, but to no avail. FIFA did not grant their request as it did for the United States ahead of the Round of 16 clash against Belgium. Folarin Balogun was allowed to play in that match despite receiving a straight red card, but Jarell Quansah will miss England’s quarterfinal against Norway. He will also be unavailable for a potential semifinal, only becoming eligible again for the final—if the Three Lions make it that far.England on red alert: Key players walk suspension tightrope as injuries lurkThe two-match suspension remains in force, wit..

Sixth game so far for France at this World Cup and sixth win for Les Bleus. Many tried but nobody managed to do anything against this team, which proves, game and game again that they are the best team at this tournament. These players have such individual quality that they manage to overcome all obstacles during the 90 minutes of every match. Today against Morocco, the biggest obstacle for the French was Yassine Bounou, and the Atlas Lions’ keeper saved everything thrown his way for an hour. But he couldn’t do anything against the individual qualities of Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele. When nothing was working, these two stars scored some excellent goals and secured a 2-0 win over Morocco and a trip to the semi-finals, where their probable opponent will be Spain. Considering the performances so far, this should be a final before final. The Atlas Lions came to the semi-finals at Qatar four years earlier and were stopped by France (also with the same score), and nothing changed much ..
