Game move

Minute 4: Huge save by Hugo Loris.

The French defense made a big mistake, Romulo Lukaku took advantage of the error to deliver a wide ball, and Kevin de Bruyne with a fly kick from a distance of about 10 meters could not believe it when he saw the goalkeeper send a long hand and save a safe goal.

Minute 5: Excellent pace in Turin, this time it was Ambape who had already left Courtois behind, but from a difficult angle could not find the goal frame or a free friend in the box.

8th minute: Ambape picked up from the left, Favar overtook the keeper and tried to score with the heel, but the ball was well received by Courtois.

23rd minute: Favar again entered the Belgian field and lowered with his head to Ambape, but the ball that was kicked did not hit Courtois hard.

37 minutes, 0: 1 for the Belgian team!

De Brauna told Crasco, who cut towards the center and with a sharp and unnecessary ball found the near corner of Loris, that all he had left was to stand and watch the ball go into the goal.

41 minutes, 0: 2 to Belgium!

The Red Devils had a double advantage after Field Brauna found Lukaku in a deep ball between the two Hernandez brothers, the Chelsea striker galloped towards the goal and kicked from close range a powerful ball that Loris could not stop.

45 minutes: With the start of extra time, Eden Hazard also tried to score, but from about 16 meters kicked a ball that Loris went down and caught easily.

50th minute: The tricolor went up better for the second half, but Pogba did not find the frame in his two attempts against Courtois - first with a kick from distance and then with a kick at the end of a stationary position.

51 min: Castan passed wide from the right wing, Lukaku with a kick from the air failed to surprise Loris.

58 min: Griezmann can't believe it happened to him.

Ambape passed wide and the Atletico Madrid striker had to score, but got confused in the legs and from about 5 meters kicked out.

France is still double lagging.

62 minutes, France returned to play:

Ambape snatched a ball near the field, galloped towards the field and found Benzema with a good pass, who was not frightened by the Belgian defense that closed it from almost all directions and between all players sent a surprising ball to the far corner and inside.

2: 1.

69 minutes, France equalized to 2: 2!

The screen judges signaled to referee Yuri Tillmans to commit a foul on Griezmann in the box, the referee watched the incident, pointed to the penalty spot and Killian Ambape equalized.
