Skonto Rigga

The 2022 FIFA World Cup semi-final line-up will be complete after this evening’s last quarter-final tie between England and France.

Kick-off at the Al Bayt Stadium in Al Khor is at 19:00 GMT.

Les Bleus are the bookies’ favourites to qualify (around 4/5 compared to 11/10 shots England), with the winner of this match set to face surprise packages Morocco on Wednesday.

As for the team news, it’s as straightforward as it comes.

The two sides are unchanged from their respective round-of-16 wins, both of which were ultimately comfortable in nature.

Raheem Sterling is back on the bench after briefly returning home to the UK earlier this week following a break-in at his home.

Six members of Gareth Southgate’s starting XI have double-digit ownerships in FIFA World Cup Fantasy, with Bukayo Saka being the most popular on 43.3%.

Only three starters in Didier Deschamps’ squad are in 10% or more of Fantasy squads, with Kylian Mbappe – who sits in almost exactly two-thirds of teams – by far and away the most selected.

MATCHDAY 5 LINE-UPS

England XI: Pickford, Walker, Stones, Maguire, Shaw, Rice, Bellingham, Henderson, Kane, Saka, Foden.

France XI: Lloris, Kounde, Varane, Upamecano, T. Hernandez, Griezmann, Tchouameni, Rabiot, Dembele, Giroud, Mbappe.

      I have Rabiot and watched him closely. He did link up with Mbappe quite well. He had one very good chance but missed it. He will probably get something, but risk of AA is real also. Can't see many better alternatives, also Mbappe got nothing today. And we probably need French mids in final also.

      Better manager could have won this match. Southgate started with "short" Pickford in goal. Both Pope and Henderson would have saved first goal. Cannot blame Pickford, he is much taller than me for example, but that's not the point. Southgate knew this risk, he took it, he lost it.
      
      Transferring Saka out was simply stupid. He was MOTM. First goal wasn't at all his fault, it was ref error. And he won the pen and was in fire. Should have won some free kicks also. When margins are small, little things matter.

Clown coach know his team lack of set piece taker from last Euro Cup, making the same mistake over and over again.

James Ward-Prowse would be bury that free kick, pen kick and play better than Henderson.

  He took Maddison with him. Too bad not that many players got their chance on this tournament. But credit to Southgate and his team England were better today, France were lucky to score those goals from the amount of chances they created.

Well I'm heartbroken. A dream shattered.

But can't fault the players, they were magnificent. Best England performance I've seen in my lifetime. Every single starter was an 8 out of 10 or higher. The three youngsters Bellingham (19), Saka (21) and Foden (22) were 10/10. We'll try again in four years when the players are mature.

Well done France.

I think I'm done. I wish you all the best of luck. Goodbye all.

Having the ref play on your side makes a huge difference. But, fair play to France, they still had to put the ball in the net and scored two good goals

England weren't progressive enough in attack. Didn't support Foden and Saka moves quickly enough, left them isolated. Could have done with Grealish on earlier

    Just the 4 fouls around the box, one of which leading to the first goal - these things affect the game
    
    Having to go to VAR for the 2nd pen confirmed the bias
    
    But, as I said, England didn't play well enough. We could have still won but lacked the sharpness in attack when Phil and Bukayo were going for it
    
    Plus the usual inability of Southgate to read what was needed and make the telling substitution - Grealish

        The "plucky loser" narrative is all too enticing.
        
        Ultimately, we have always struggled to retain possession and beyond that lack any type of cutting edge. Until we address those two key elements and stop mouthing off how good we are, then we'll never get beyond this current ceiling.

        Yep, that's the crux of it.
        
        I'm relieved we've made a concious effort shift away from this culture of toxic criticism, but our inability to recognise that English football won't move forward till it is overhauled will forever hold us back.
        
        We ultimately didn't play all that well

I think Olivier Giroud might go down as the most underrated and underappreciated footballer in history ..most goals scored by a France player is a crazy achievement yet people won't even consider him to be on the same level as the other top 10 on that list.

Posted during the Senegal game. Basically explains why England lost against France. Since Iran most of England's goals have come from deep midfield counters and not through high possession. Southgate persisted with high possession when it was obvious they struggled to create chances.

"Southgate tactics to keep possession and play high up the pitch were failing.

The team aren't coached well enough to play that way.

The players have bailed Southgate out with 2 deep counter moves from midfield.

England need to play this way from the start."

  Interesting
  
  I just think it mainly comes down to coming up against top tier opposition. We just can't do it against the top level nations and never really have

    All the locked players that I brought in for matchday 6 under MD5 WC are showing for me in the MD6 tab. I don't think you can see them any further back than that.

    Change from current md to next one. Or look previous. Players that are different are the ones you have sold and bought.

Damage check, looks like my 5 transfers will allow me to replace my entire midfield and still get a 3rd forward in but I'll have to go with just 1 keepr unless I wanna take a hit, i guess Livakovich it is lol

  I only got one keeper and will probably use one of my 4. I still have 3 'tokens' left as I forgot to use power captain or 12th man. Now got to make a decision whether a wild card in final game week is more profitable over using the 12th man!!

    so you'll have enough T's to cover the 2nd keepr, you think it's worth taking a hit for a keepr?

      I think so yes but maybe you can wait till after first semi? If you have a couple of croatia and croatia win you may want to use it somewhere else

Lee Sharpe just interviewed on Sky Sport News, saying a change is probably needed now (not saying Gareth has failed, just that things may need freshening up), but who is that man? I'm assuming Eddie Howe is the favourite but I feel he lacks experience.

  OGS has said that after coaching MU the way he did, no-one has done any better. He feels honoured for the chance to take his new challenge with Three Lions. He is expected to be Sir Ole Gunnar after his 4 year project.

Huge opportunity missed.
Morocco in the semi-finals, Brazil out, with Argentina - Croatia in the other semi.
Have to feel for Kane, in my view that miss is more painful than Saka's v Italy.

You need a huge GK in order to win the World Cup, just this.
I don’t mean that Pickford was sht or something but teams who win the World Cup always have huge GKs

  Penalty Man - Dean Henderson
  
  The PK-Shootout rule is dumb however.
  
  Team can play negative for 120 minutes and then get the same odds on PK.
  
  We should total up the shots, corners, and possession- then distribute PKs.
  
  If you survive to PK but just defend, you get 1 PK. The guys that played get 5 PKs.

  Blaming luck time after time just doesn't make sense. Lloris would have saved that first shot for example. Southgate chose Pickford who was just simply too short to save it. That's not pure luck, it's a calculated(?) risk and he lost it.
  
  Things may change within couple of years. Bellingham, Saka and Foden are not at their best yet.

  England have never won a knockout fixture in the World Cup or Euros/European Championship on foreign soil ever so it definitely didn't come as a surprise.

  Unlucky, agreed.
  
  Greece winning a Euro was lucky rubbish
  
  Germany in 2014 was luck, but 7 up on Brazil was huge. Got to play a mental Brazil team with idiots like David Luiz on the team. That's lucky.
  
  Germany 1990 was lucky.
  
  Denmark 1992 was lucky
  
  Italy 2006 was full of lucky moments.
