    Get Thuram on for Giroud. He looks done out there.

    Mbappe/France are very positionally disciplined/predictable. No wing swaps, no sprints down the middle for a ball over the top. Just stays left

    "England so close" says George and Ronnie. The header scraped the paint of the outside of the post, not the very inside.

    France need a change. Not sure what DesChamps is waiting for.

    France have been poor this half. England merit the win on this evidence. Deschamps needs to make a change.

    Really don't see why France haven't made a substitution. They're well off the pace atm.

    FFS! Score a goal from play England and stop constantly looking for easy opportunities from the spot.

    Again England so, so lucky. Should have been buried in the corner, not straight at Pickford.

    Giroud was always better at heading the ball.
