Didier Deschamps, I think, is changing style a little. Against Portugal, France played a number 10 behind two strikers, whereas tonight they’ve gone for a front three. I think they’ll want to bog Spain down in midfield and counter, stretching the pitch, but I’d also not be surprised to see Rabiot and Kanté rampaging forward through the middle.
Spain, then, have a bit of a problem. At his peak, Jesus Navas was a sometimes-good winger, and now, in his dotage, he’s a right-back expected to contain Mbappe in a tournament semi-final; good luck old mate.
