France beat Belgium 1-0 to reach Euro 2024 quarter-finals

France, on Monday, beat Belgium 1-0 to advance to the Euro 2024 quarter-finals.

Antoine Griezmann returned to France’s starting XI against Belgium in Duesseldorf on Monday.

Atletico Madrid forward Griezmann was dropped for Bradley Barcola by coach Didier Deschamps for France’s 1-1 draw with Poland, Les Bleus’ final Group C fixture.

But the 33-year-old returned for the heavyweight contest, while Kylian Mbappe started up front with what he called his “horrible” face mask protecting his broken nose.
