England will look to progress to their third consecutive major tournament semi-final this evening when they take on France in the World Cup quarter-finals.
Yesterday's meetings saw European and South American opposition go head-to-head as drama flowed form end to end and both were decided by penalties. Tournament favourites Brazil suffered a shock exit at the hands of the wily Croatia, while Lionel Messi helped his Argentina side progress past the Netherlands.
The Three Lions comfortably beat Senegal in the round-of-16 but know it won't get much harder than the world champions and their star Kylian Mbappe. Les Bleus were comfortable in progressing past Poland in the previous round and will fancy their chances at consecutive world titles after seeing Brazil eliminated.

Is there any early team news?
England are expected to name an unchanged line-up for their World Cup quarter-final clash against France this evening, with Jordan Henderson in-line to start his third consecutive match.
The Three Lions comfortably beat Senegal in the round-of-16 but know they face as tough a task as one could face when they meet with the current world champions and arguably the world's best player in Kylian Mbappe. The Paris Saint-Germain's star's threat has led to debate over whether Gareth Southgate should revert to a back three and double up on the pacey winger, thus potentially dropping one midfielder.
But according to Sky Sports , the England manager will stick to his guns with the 4-3-3 formation that has seen them through to this point, with Henderson set to start alongside Declan Rice and Jude Bellingham.
Sky Sports reporter Rob Dosett said of the decision: "He wants to keep three in midfield, he wants to keep Bellingham. It's a really positive note that he's going to go toe-to-toe with France, who we also expect to play 4-3-3 .
"With Bellingham, Henderson and Rice, England believe they have the better of France in that midfield, and that's where this game might be won or lost. They also feel France aren't as strong at the back as they have been."
Predicted England lineup (4-3-3): Pickford; Walker, Stones, Maguire, Shaw; Rice, Henderson, Bellingham; Saka, Foden, Kane.
