Euro 2016 : France vs Iceland

This Sunday at the Stade de France (19 GMT), the Blues have everything to lose against Iceland in the quarterfinals. Beyond the ranking and reputation of their national team of France, it is a real world that separates France and Iceland. In terms of resources, land, resources and interests, complete opposites.
The France team awaited England in the quarter: it will cross the Vikings! Surprised by Ireland early on before forcing the green lock thanks to a brace from Griezmann (2-1), the Blues will have to raise their standards if they intend to cross the Icelandic obstacle. A trap game against a nation that has continued to impress since the start of the Euro. With its 330,000 inhabitants and some 100 professional players, Iceland is a Tom Thumb in the giant appetite. After holding head in Portugal during the first phase looped a historic first success in a major competition, won against Austria (2-1) at the Stade de France, he crunched England in Nice (1 -2) and comes face the French with fangs. Deprived of Kanté and Rami suspended, the Blues should not tremble to reach the last four of their Euro.

        
Conducted after two minutes against Ireland, the Blues did not panic and have found solutions during a second period of high level (2-1). Reassuring before facing the Icelandic block.

    
Iceland already holds the feat of the Euro against England (1-2 victory) and knows how difficult it is for an underdog to chain, both physically and nervously.

    
France won 3 of their 4 games in this Euro and can count on impeccable Lloris in goal. Decisive, doorman Spurs were mistaken on two penalty kicks and will prevail in the air on set pieces.

    
Kanté and suspended Rami, Didier Deschamps could associate Umtiti Koscielny in to the central axis. If he is not experienced at international level, the Lyonnais, adroit, is able to properly relaunch the balloons. His profile will help the Blues in this game should look like an attack-defense.
Having deprived the Netherlands competition in qualifying, Portugal stood up to the beginning of competition, dominated Austria in the capital before returning the English home, Icelanders are starting to take the game! However, it is doubtful of their ability to confirm the feat achieved in the face of dying Three Lions face a France team on his land and far more inspired offensively. Released by their victory against Ireland (2-1), the Blues will assume their responsibilities to reach the semifinals. Victory of France.
