1 hr from kickoff: England and France both name unchanged sides! It aligns with how he managed the squad en route to the title in 2018, sticking to a mix of players that is seemingly working well together. The Arsenal livewire tries to lay a low pass off towards Harry Kane, and France clear. France fans won't have enjoyed a moment of panic in front of their goalline. (Probably) the first VAR check of the game – and it's potentially a massive one. England have a corner on the right following that save by Hugo Lloris. Fair play to any punters who had Griezmann as the unlikely first candidate for a caution. It's cleared, and the action stops as Ousmane Dembele is booked for a nasty foul on Jude Bellingham that leaves the midfielder in pain.

We go over the odds and lines on DraftKings Sportsbook for England vs. France in the quarterfinals at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Although I think France will ultimately get the win and advance (-130 to advance at DraftKings Sportsbook), I’m taking a draw in regular time as it will be a hard-fought and undoubtedly exciting battle from both sides. Olivier Giroud is just behind Mbappe with three goals, and just overtook the top spot on France’s all-time scorers list with his 44th-minute score in the match against Poland. Now these two sides will go head-to-head with only one able to reach the semifinal, going up against the winner of Morocco vs. England are led by Marcus Rashford and Bukayo Saka, who both have three goals apiece, while Harry Kane has notched a team-high three assists through the first four matches. England will face off against the defending champions France on Saturday in the last quarterfinal match of the weekend. This matchup sort of feels like a final already, as both teams have been playing some fantastic soccer and are two of the biggest powerhouses in the world.

France's road to repeating as champs goes through Harry Kane and a very strong England team. Follow live.

England’s team in Qatar has the talent, tactics and, perhaps, fortitude to win another — if it can neutralize Kylian Mbappé, who seems to score as often as that New Balance commercial plays on Fox. But who knows: maybe England would have scored from the resultant free-kick. Controlling the ball at the right corner of the France penalty area, he takes a crack at Lloris, or rather a tiny bit of space over Lloris’s right shoulder, that is. England turns the resulting free kick into a shot, and a corner. England has been the better team here, but it has about 15 minutes to find a goal or it’s going out of the World Cup. That was the warning; England, caught out by a laser of a cross from Griezmann, did not heed it. Rashford wins a free kick in an extremely dangerous place, just outside the D at the top of the penalty area, a little to the left. The winner of that will meet the Croatia-Argentina winner in the World Cup final on Dec. Gradually, it stripped any urgency from its play, any impetus, as if expecting England simply to succumb. The French return to the semifinals with a sudden burst of energy in the second half and with the help of a missed penalty by Harry Kane. There were, however, other apparent offenses: a penalty claim from Kane, in particular, which was certainly a foul but was not, on more detailed review, actually in the penalty area; a succession of hairsplitting free kicks awarded against England; an array of French transgressions that seemed to pass by unnoticed. It is, or at least it has become, a natural part of the cycle, a chance for catharsis, collective therapy or just some good, old-fashioned bloodletting, depending on the circumstances.

The 2022 FIFA World Cup continued Saturday with England falling to France in the quarterfinals, 2-1. Here are the top plays!
