France vs. Belgium live stream: Watch World Cup online
By Harvey Cruz
France take on Belgium in the semifinals of the World Cup on Tuesday, July 10. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
This is it, two more games to decide the finalists for the 2018 World Cup. France versus Belgium is a battle pitting two golden generations against each other. It features some of the very best players in the world against one another, and for 90 minutes and maybe more, we get to see them lay it all out on the line.
France reached the semifinals off a professional 2-0 victory over Uruguay. Raphael Varane and Antoine Griezmann scored the goals as France clinched another clean sheet. It’s their third clean sheet in five games so far, quite impressive. Didier Deschamps will have to be wary of Belgium’s attacking prowess, as they are both lethal and clinical. Blaise Matuidi is back after missing last game due to yellow card accumulation.
Belgium got to this point defeating Brazil 2-1 in convincing fashion. Roberto Martinez got his tactics spot on to neutralize both Neymar and Coutinho. He also gave Belgium more cutting edge in attack and steel in defense by switching Dries Mertens for Marouane Fellaini. Not only that, but adding Nacer Chadli for more defensive cover paid off as well. Containing France will be his most difficult challenge to date, but if he pulls it off, he will have deserved every bit of praise. Maybe Thierry Henry will have something to do with it.
