Kylian Mbappe missed a penalty and scored a superb goal against Morocco as France marched into the World Cup semi-finals for the third tournament in a row.The France captain had his first-half penalty saved by Morocco goalkeeper Yassine Bounou after a three-minute delay to him taking it, but made amends by scoring the opening goal after the break.His old Paris Saint-Germain team-mate Ousmane Dembele then increased France’s lead to put the result beyond doubt.Mbappe was withdrawn with 13 minutes remaining after raising his arm to the bench and lying down on the floor while Morocco had the ball in play. He did not appear in great distress but stretched out his right leg with assistance from one of France’s medical team. Mbappe then waved to the crowd on his way off and gave high-fives to his team-mates on the bench.Television footage subsequently showed Mbappe with ice resting on his right foot but he joined his team’s celebrations after the final whistle.The win takes the 2022 finalists into the last four of this tournament, setting up a semi-final against the winner of Friday’s clash between Spain and Belgium.Jordan Campbell, Amy Lawrence, Simon Hughes and Conor O’Neill analyse the key talking points…Can anyone stop France?That France have not fallen behind once at this World Cup is a testament to their brilliance.Yet it would be interesting to see what happens to them if, say, Spain took a semi-final lead, or maybe England in the final, wouldn’t it?They are so dangerous, particularly when ahead, because opponents have to open up to chase a result. This means France’s turbo-charged forwards have the space to do even more damage.Against Morocco, that is exactly what happened after Mbappe’s opening goal — with Dembele springing the counter-attack and finish that secured his team’s place in the next round.Spain, England and Argentina certainly have the attacking thrust and individual ability to cause France more problems than any of the sides they have faced so far.There is no doubt that France have the best starting XI at this World Cup and the deepest squad but tournament football history teaches you it ultimately only takes a few minutes for a whole campaign to unravel.Simon HughesYet another unbelievable goal from MbappeWhoever ends up winning the Golden Boot will have a highlight reel for the ages. Tonight it was Mbappe’s turn, adding another sumptuous effort to open the scoring here and bring him level with Messi on eight goals.He is now just five goals shy of the record for the most goals in a single World Cup campaign, held by another French striker, Just Fontaine, who scored a staggering 13 in the 1958 edition. With two games still to come, the semi-final followed by either the final or third-place play-off, nobody is counting Mbappe out.Like Messi against Egypt, Mbappe passed up the opportunity for a more routine addition to his tally, with a tame penalty effort in the first half. Seemingly intent on matching his rival for style as well as output, Mbappe’s deadlock-breaking goal was a stunning curling effort, struck with the deadly mix of precision and speed we have become accustomed to from France’s record goalscorer.
