French are getting away with murder. Ref must have been told to make sure france go through since England and possibly Italy are going home.

France are decent, well overlooked by most. In both games have been as impressive as anyone so far.

I'd still be questioning the quality of the two teams they've come up against.

Surely somewhere in France and the surrounding regions there is a better left back than Evra.
