(France and Germany face off in what will be the semi-finals of Euro 2016. Catch the Live Updates of the match here)
Hello and welcome to the Euro 2016 Semi Final between France and Germany. There is a lot of history between the teams and the match, which will be played at Stade Velodrome in Marseille will be a litmus test for the hosts, whose expectations have crept up going into the contest. There is still a hurt from Harold Schumacher’s brutal tackle 34 years ago among the French public. Michel Platini and his team smarted from the defeat and went on to win Euro 1984 two years later, on home soil. Catch the Live Streaming of the match here
Paul Pogba and Antoine Griezmann are the main men for the hosts going forward. One is the creator and the other is the goalscorer. If these two find pockets of space between the lines of defense and attack, it will be tough for the makeshift German defense.
Predicted Lineups:
Germany
Neuer, Kimmich, Boateng, Howedes, Hector, Can, Kroos, Draxler, Ozil, Gotze, Muller
France
Lloris, Sagna, Rami, Koscielny, Evra, Matuidi, Kante, Pogba, Griezmann, Giroud, Payet
