If the French play as well as they did today, France probably wins the World Cup.

Next time i'll cheer for Holland (whenever they're not playing Belgium..)
France did what they had to do, excellent defensive play. They kept De Bruyne and Lukaku out of the game. Belgium missed Meunier on the right (and Chadli on the left...) Moussa Dembélé played a terrible game.
Anyway, France didn't sparkle with adventurous football, but it was still an interesting game to watch. You could clearly see how changing tactics had an impact on the game.
Football comes down to playing good and having luck. France had both today. Belgium had both in the BRA-BEL game.
Can't see Croatia or England stopping this France from winning this cup. England should play their B-team tomorrow so we can finally get that ENG-BEL rematch and England can dream forever about what might have happened if they went for the win in CRO-ENG.

Could've done without Mbappé's antics towards the end but whatever.

This has been one of the most 'stroll-to-the-finals' for France, other than a lapse against Argentina I don't know how much trouble they've been in - in fact the cup has been less about fantastic wins and more shocking losses throughout.

Unless Kane doesn't score again, and Lukaku scores a hat-trick

Pretty unlikely given France's defensive approach under Deschamps - I would love both coaches to go 'you know what, it's the finals, let's just go for it..', and have a 4-3 game with a last minute winner in normal time akin to Zidane's UEFA CL goal in '02.. but by Lingard or Alli.

You know, for old time's sake.

Maybe starting WW3 before the tournament's over is worth it.
