2026 World Cup is quickly becoming France's playground. Last night, France showed absolutely no mercy against a very determined Moroccan team and sent a clear message to everyone else still in the tournament. They simply annihilated them moved to the semi-finals with a 2-0 win.
On one hand, we all already knew that France had the deepest squad in the tournament, but the way they are playing suggests that they are simply a cut above the rest.
The most complete squad in football
They are an absolutely complete team and they are the most fearsome prospect for any team that will have to face them in the upcoming matches. The French team has been the most balanced and complete international team for the longest time now, but it's rare to see any team handle the extreme pressure of knockout rounds as well as this French squad.
Their tactical flexibility makes them dangerous against any team. They have the firepower in the wings to quickly break through any defensive line no matter how solid they may seem on paper.
If you sit back and try to defend, Mbappe and Dembele are just waiting to pounce on any mistake.If you push forward, William Saliba, Kounde and the rest of the midfield never give you an inch of space.
They drain all the energy out of their opponents and they look very comfortable both with and without the ball. It feels like opponents are playing against a team of robots, specially programmed to win the tournament. You can play the best match of your life against France and still lose comprehensively.
Two steps from glory: Who is left to stand in the way?
France is two wins away from raising the trophy for the second time in three years sessions. The only concern on their path to the final is who they will face in the semi-finals. Right now, it's still anyone's guess since they will have to face either Spain or Belgium.
Do Spain have the technical ability to unlock the defense and create chances against France? Will Belgium's experience be enough if they are up against a younger and hungrier French squad? Either way, it looks like the team that will advance to the semi-finals against France is walking into a meat grinder.
Sure, there's always a surprise waiting for us in sports, especially in football. There is a reason why every team always says they have a chance to win any game, no matter what. But when France steps on the pitch, all of that goes out the window because they are just so much better than everyone else.
Now that they have advanced to the semi-finals, the whole world is waiting for the answer to one very important question. Can anybody stop France?
