So with barely any time to recover from the previous round of games, it's time to go again. Victory here would be a giant step towards the prize that everyone desires. It is quarter-final day. Just listen to that noise. This place is definitely up for it. Let's hope we get a contest worthy of the setting. Both managers at pains to state that their teams aren't quite where they should be just yet. What did you make of that assessment, Jim? Well, I think there's a bit of reverse psychology going on here, Peter. The managers know the score. They're just keeping their cards close to their chest for the moment. We're up and running then. So a clash of nations with so much pride on the line. And he's forced to go back. the most accurate pass. The belly, is having a shot! Go! France! And France are in front! And he stuck it away as if laser -guided. That's expertly finished, and he's done that so often. They have what they wanted, the first breakthrough. goalkeeping. Dembele clearly thought he had the beating of the keeper. And we have our very first quarter. Tries to get it clear. And he's picked it up out wide. Traumeri. France leading here, thanks to that early goal. And the score is 1-0. Aclouche gets into a good position. And the chances keep on coming. They're awarded another corner. France have their second corner now. Defending of the desperate variety. Mexico have the chance to go the other way. Excellent challenge there, uncompromising. Cleared away. France currently a goal to the good and with the lion's share of the... Umbate! Oh, wonderful! What a goal! A finish of true class! They are purring, truly purring! And that really is so, so impressive. France are now luxuriating in a two-gole lead. I think there's been a greater menace to everything they've been doing during this spell, one that they hope will continue. He has found the way takes a shot! And it's there! And they're threatening to fly away here! That is glorious, as if he picked it up and put it there himself. Well, it's one of those, Peter, when you've got to take your hat off and just say, too good. Find a position of real strength now. Well, their manager seems to have them always thinking about the next goal. When's the next goal coming? They're such an entertaining watch. That he was quick to react. France. have hit a quickfire double here. Looking for the run. He's found support out wide. He's found the way through. Oh, he's enjoyed that. He evidently loves the contest. The pressing's intense and it's paid off. Oh, that's well spotted. Achluche. And it's Conte, looking for a runner, that has been cut short. Mexico, disappointing in the end there, they lack urgency. Well, that's good defending. He squeezed the player and he gave him no chance to get on the tone. France, looking forward to the break after some very good work in the first 45 minutes. Conte. Nice looking ball. No, that's been intercepted. There's a sharp little ball here. Hernandez cuts out the pass Mbapapé spread to the right. Spread to the right. Pretty robust defending. That's really well maneuvered. Knocks it into space, and he's in on goal! He's a direct defending. So alert. Threads one in, he's in a great position here, Trameni, and that is the end of the first half. Well, the mood in the two camps couldn't be more different as they go in for half-time. Elytion on one side, misery on the other. France absolutely dominated that half, Peter, and now it's all about game management. There's no need to overstress themselves, just stay calm. and see this one out. France, looking like the only team in this, they lead by three. Hostilities have resumed at the start of the second half. Oh, perfectly measured that. This is the... rising over the bar. Unsurprisingly, he's been quick to apologize. If you lean backwards, the results are normally high and wide. He's on it, can he get away? Engages and forces him off the ball. Played out towards the right wing. Hoisted in. Looking wide, that's offside, yes it is. Conte, Tremé, Tremé, being hunted in packs. Well, he's profited handsomely already in this match, and at last, their sense of danger has brought into a possible solution. more and more pressure on the ball here. France looking close to untouchable here at 3 -0. Can he get it through? That's an imaginative pass, chips it through. He's had a shot! Keepers got his work done. I can't quite the lead he's missed that, Peter. Corner number three coming up. That has been not clear. Good ball, good time. Anglius! A whisker away from making it four. It's Dembele. Now, he's got space here. Oh, that was vital. Oh, good spread. Oh, that's a key interception. Yeah, they were looking for a counterattack. Cherokee, who does have an assist to his name. Niceties are not part of this approach. This is actually quite aggressive. Well, now here's a good battle, bicep to bicep. Ah, and that pass just didn't quite work. Aclouche. It's Dempele. That is a jarring tackle, but apparently nothing wrong with it. And the through ball. Again, there's no way through. He's felt that, hasn't he? A lot of space here, a real opportunity. He's shifting through the gears here. Well, it didn't look good for a while, but that was brave defending, and they got away with it. Well, I thought they got off lightly there, the odds. DeBally! Decent attempt, but not quite good enough. That's alert and sharp and very well played. Tries to pass it through, in towards the back stick. That should be the goalkeepers, and it is. That pass isn't the best. Well, that was well positioned and well pinched. They can't hurt with their backs to go. Rapidly approaching the end. Now just moments away from a semi-final place. Shin to shin, bicep to bicep, and he wins out. Shuzmou. Great vision. Saliba is there, and he can get that clear. Oh, this looks sharp. Keep the ball and you win the game. It really is that simple. What's going wide left? Well, he was clearly disappointed with that pass. Well, everything up to the final pass looked decent. They just couldn't pick out that killer ball. That is good pressure, just hounded him off it. Two minutes to be added on. Kunday does really well to win the ball there. Just eases him off the ball. That's at the end. So then, can they afford to believe? Just two games left, and the wind is...
