The world has been warned. The French team impressed yesterday during its success against Morocco (2-0) in the quarter-final of this World Cup. She will face the winner of Spain-Belgium (kick-off tonight, 9 p.m. French time) on July 14. Suffice to say that for most of the Spanish media, it’s already seen everything. There will be yet another revenge between the Blues and La Roja, and above all a highly anticipated duel with Kylian MbappĂ©, also very feared by part of the Iberian press. “ France is mucha France “, send Marcaeither ” A very France “.

Translate that Didier Deschamps’ men are scary, especially this offensive power. “ The match took place almost exclusively near the Moroccan surface », summarizes the daily, still evoking the difficulties of finding the fault. “ The incessant French attacks produced no goals. (…) One would have thought that it was only a matter of time. In fact, the match only lasted as long as the first goal. MbappĂ©’s breakthrough, which outpaced a seemingly insurmountable Bono, sealed a fate which, in reality, had almost been decided from the start “.

“ France doesn’t scare anyone either »

“ Eight goals, or even nine if he hadn’t missed a penalty. They’re all a golden generation, but it’s the Real Madrid player who shines in the decisive moments », retains A.S.not a little proud of the Madrid striker, who joined Leo Messi at the top of the scoring rankings for this World Cup. The performance of the Atlas Lions may also have disappointed. “ In reality, France didn’t need much to create chances, mainly because Morocco was incapable of restarting cleanly and building the game. It was a real French monologue “.

For his part, El Larguero tries to project himself. What does it take to put this French team in difficulty? “ Have a complete game, very few turnovers and be very efficient in attack “. As if to better warn La Roja in the event of a victory against the Belgians. And a chronicle of Marca goes even further, saying that there exists a “ good news for Spain: France doesn’t scare anyone either “. The media explains that the French team saw its work made easier by the little adversity they faced.

Will France go all the way and win the World Cup?

Still no major opponent encountered by the French team

“ France qualified with less opposition than expected. In the end, the Lions were not as formidable as we hoped. Morocco disappointed, and the Blues won without even having to deliver a great performance “. These Blues don’t seem impregnable either. They still would not have faced a great nation in this competition, and here they are already in the last four. “ Even Deschamps felt that little was going to happen with 20 minutes to go » extends this post to explain the entry of Zaire-Emery, author of his first minutes of the World Cup.
