22:21 – France: Camavinga and Nkunku enter

Didier Deschamps makes two changes at once. Bradley Barcola and Mattéo Guendouzi are replaced by Christopher Nkunku and Eduardo Camavinga respectively.

22:17 – Belgium has 20 minutes to come back

With this double change, Domenico Tedesco wants to try to disrupt the Blues during the last 20 minutes of this match. But Didier Deschamps is preparing to answer him with Camavinga in particular.

22:14 – Belgium: Tedesco makes two changes

Domenico Tedesco makes two changes at once for Belgium. De Cuyper and Vranckx replace Castagne and Mangala respectively.

France takes the lead in this match! After a nice three-way game on the left between Digne, Dembélé and Barcola, the French full-back puts the ball on Kolo Muani's head in the box. The PSG striker deflects well and beats Casteels, whose hand is not firm enough on this shot. 2-1 for the Blues!

22:07 – Decision confirmed and goal disallowed

The VAR confirms Randal Kolo Muani's handball and the goal scored by Manu Koné is therefore logically disallowed. But the Blues are much better in this second period than in the first!

22:06 – Goal disallowed for France!

The Blues thought they had taken the lead on a two-stage move by Manu Koné, but the goal was disallowed for a handball by Kolo Muani just before. It was verified by the VAR currently.

22:03 – De Ketelaere also gets a yellow card

It's Charles De Ketelaere's turn to get a yellow card for a rude shirt pull on Ousmane Dembélé, who even ends up with his shirt torn.

22:00 – Faes gets a yellow card

The former Reims defender Wout Faes gets a yellow card for a foul in midfield. He is the second Belgian player to be booked tonight after Mangala.

What a breakthrough from Dembélé! Following the Belgian free kick, the Blues went on the counter-attack under the impetus of Dembélé who recovered the ball in his 35-meter area. The PSG winger finally crossed the entire field to then strike in the Belgian area but it was just wide!

21:58 – Kound&eacute hand-balled in a stupid way

Thinking that the ball had gone out along the touchline, Jules Koundá takes the ball with his hand, but the sphere was ultimately not completely out. Handball by the French defender therefore, and a free kick for Belgium. The Belgians do nothing about it.

21:55 – France gets a corner

Les Bleus get a corner in this second period. Dembélé takes it but as usual, it lacks power and the Belgian defense clears the danger.

Bosnian referee Irfan Peljto whistles the start of the second period in Brussels between Belgium and France (1-1). The Belgians are committed for these last 45 minutes!

21:44 – The Blues are doing well

Belgium and France are tied after the first 45 minutes at the King Baudouin Stadium (1-1), but it is the Belgians who can have regrets. Tielemans missed a penalty (23rd) at the height of Belgian domination, even if Openda ended up responding to Kolo Muani, who did not miss his penalty to give the Blues the advantage (35th), to equalize in added time (45th + 3). The French suffered against this Belgian team and three French defenders have collected a yellow card (Saliba, Konatá and Digne).

It's half-time at the King Baudouin stadium! Belgium and France go into the locker room with a one-goal draw (1-1). Kolo Muani had given the Blues the lead from a penalty (35th) before Openda equalized in added time (45th+3).

Loïs Openda equalizes at the end of added time! On a well-worked cross from Castagne, the RB Leipzig striker deceives Maignan with a header after having given the French defenders the slip. 1-1 between Belgium and France!

21:31 – Four minutes of added time

The Bosnian referee of this match awards four minutes of added time in this first period, while Konaté was penalized of a yellow card for a foul on Doku on the previous action.

21:30 – Doku lacks precision

Doku and Trossard have swapped positions but that doesn't stop the City winger from tormenting the French defence. Except that he doesn't adjust his cross after having gone well to the left. The Belgians still get a corner, which however comes to nothing.

21:27 – Corner for France

France get a corner as half-time approaches. Digne is at the stick but the Belgian defense pushes back without trembling.

21:24 – Fifth goal of the year for Kolo Muani

It's the 5th goal in the jersey of the French team in 2024 for Randal Kolo Muani, which makes him the top scorer during this year.

Randal Kolo Muani takes his responsibilities on this penalty and perfectly takes the Belgian goalkeeper Casteels on the wrong foot! 1-0 for France and it must be recognized, it is a little against the run of play.

21:18 – Penalty for France!

The Blues are starting to get their heads above water a little after half an hour of play. Barcola is found in the area and multiplies the dribbles. Faes is overtaken, on the ground, and touches the ball with his hand. The referee points to the penalty spot again, this time for France!

21:14 – Mangala is cautioned his turn

Orel Mangala, the midfielder who belongs to OL (but who plays for Everton this season), gets a yellow card for holding Kolo Muani by the shirt.

21:13 – Deschamps tries to remobilize his team

Didier Deschamps shouts from his bench to try to help his players and gets angry at their difficulties. Without managing to fix it for now.

21:10 – Barcola is dangerous

On a long ball from Digne, Barcola manages a superb control in full run before cutting back into the axis and surprising the Belgians. He then curls a powerful shot but Casteels deflects well!

Youri Tielemans has taken his responsibilities but he sends the ball well over Mike Maignan's goal! The score remains 0-0 after about twenty minutes of play. Note that Saliba received a yellow card for this foul on Openda.
