We are going to need to pick our game up against France if we get through though, the two times we’ve actually attacked properly we’ve cut though them but we are too dodgy at the back and lose it in bad places at times…. Better teams will punish us badly.

The two goals do paper over a pretty poor half in truth.

Senegal are unlucky to not have Mane, got to think that Mane would have put one of those efforts away and if we had played that slowly at the back against Manes pace he'd have ravaged us. Should be able to see the 2nd half through relatively easily though but France and Mbappe are going to be a whole different prospect to anything we've had so far in whats been a comparatively easy run to date.
 
I think Fance are a bit overrated. Against decent teams they have looked poor at times, especially the Nations League, though England were just as bad.

Maybe they have improved for this tournament but haven't faced anyone of note yet.
