00:00Alaye Leblanc, all around the Stade de France and back, that's flighted in and two of them
00:21attacking it, Saliba and Kone maybe just got in each other's way.
00:28Moved by Stanisic
00:35Modric is so cool
00:40Every change of pace from him, he's got options and Vardiyar read that so well
00:50Click forward for Kramaric
00:53Modric with the free kick, Herisic was climbing
00:59Lovely flick for Alise
01:02He's got options in the middle, he might want to go on his own
01:06In the end it's a corner and
01:09Falls now for Abate
01:14Falling over as he turned and hit it, first real chance though for France
01:19And it goes to Alise, touched on Chouhanedi
01:24They're getting closer and closer here
01:30Really good subtle contact, it was not far away this
01:44Frustration I think from Dembele
01:47Back to his feet and over again and Mike and Oliver waves it away twice
01:52Alise went down
01:55There will be a conversation here with Jarrett
02:00Proud want fireworks from him and Abate
02:04He wasn't far from that
02:17Better again from France, in from Dembele and Abate just couldn't get his body in the right position
02:29Croatia getting bodies in
02:37Had to play it around the corner and it was awkward
02:40It was awkward
02:42Suchic had made
02:43Now Kone
02:45The slip
02:46Abate is almost surrounded every time he touched
02:49Teo Hernandez goes over
02:53Got there first and it will
02:55From Michael Alise
02:57Kone rising at that near post and felt he should have had a corner
03:01Kone
03:06He threads the pass for Varkala
03:09Tremendous save by Ljivakovic
03:12First huge chance for France
03:16They've taken the corner quickly but Mike and Oliver won't allow it
03:21Did he carry it out of play Ljivakovic and Mbappe thought it was still on
03:26Jarrett Itzaar came across
03:30Flash point here
03:34Mission from him
03:39Behind
03:40King ball looks for Killian and Mbappe
03:44Rolled across towards Goodem and Varkala who's missed the best chance of the half
03:49And so the hit by Alise
03:52He's hacked down by Guardiola
03:55To take this free kick
03:56It's well delivered towards Saliba
03:58Everyone missed it
04:01And that will be the final action of
04:06For France
04:13Alise was offside
04:15Alise was offside
04:16It was a lovely touch
04:19And he sparked them into life
04:20He can win them a free kick
04:29And Alise
04:30Sparks France into life
04:40International goal
04:42International goal
04:44Number one
04:46For Michael Alise
04:48And the record goal scorer on his feet
04:52To lead the celebrations
04:55Game very much on
04:57And the starter from
04:59A different France
05:03And just keeps running Varkala
05:09Croatia trying to offer something here
05:13Goal
05:16No it's never quite
05:19Alise taken out
05:20Free kick from Dembele
05:22Headed wide
05:24Chouhamedi again has made a great run
05:28He's made this near post run on several occasions
05:30Also on the bench
05:33Shortness but he got the nod
05:36And asked for some help and then
05:38Comes on to
05:39Here goes Dembele though but
05:42It's not easy
05:47Pushed over
05:49By Kovacic
05:50He's on a yellow
05:51Whips it in
05:52Alise
05:53Came off
05:54Shoot to Lo's head
05:56And behind for a corner
05:59Wondered for a moment where that was going
06:05It's up to him
06:07Look for the return from Dembele
06:12Looking for a goal here from Saliba
06:14But
06:16Underneath him
06:18Oh he's rocked
06:19Good turn from Dembele
06:20Now and back he
06:23Can't believe he's missed
06:26He cannot believe it
06:32Another Alise
06:34Towards Upamecano
06:36Here goes Diouf
06:40Alise for Dembele
06:42Goal
06:48Who finally brings his blistering form
06:52To the national side
06:59France level in the tie
07:03Croatian hearts broken
07:05And now France have got 10 minutes to win it
07:09What a touch that is
07:12Teo is here
07:13For Kylian Mbappe
07:14But
07:15Beautifully done by Dembele
07:17Now Kovacic is fouled
07:23Mbappe is fouled
07:25In from Alise
07:26And Upamecano was there
07:29Couldn't make the kind of contact he wanted
07:33Dewey looking for Teo Hernandez
07:36Every Croatian player behind the ball
07:38Behind
07:39Dembele drifts that in
07:41Headed behind for a corner
07:42Dewey was the one attacking it
07:50And that will do it
07:52Great comeback
07:54It's Batterini
07:55Saved
07:59Guest right
08:01Torn it away
08:04Mbappe to put them in front
08:07Levakovic does everything
08:11Nikola Moro
08:12It's beautifully done
08:15And it's 1-1 but France
08:19Aurelien Chouameni
08:22And Levakovic
08:24To keep his nerve
08:25Franjo Ivanovic
08:27Blazes over
08:30And the semi-final starts to
08:33It's Koundel
08:35It's Koundel
08:36He balloons over
08:42It's Pasalic
08:45Blasts it home
08:47Can he succeed where Kounde failed?
08:49He can
08:50He can
08:56Up steps Jakic
08:58And he fulfills his part of the
09:02It's Teo
09:03And it's missed
09:06He went for the top corner
09:08And he failed
09:09And Croatia are still alive
09:10Croatia in front in the shootout
09:12Celeta-Car
09:16Under pressure
09:17That's a superb penalty
09:19This to keep France in it
09:20It's Dewey
09:23And doesn't
09:24Nisic
09:26To step off
09:27And then he unsaves
09:31It is swung
09:32One way and another
