Though many players that shone in the previous World Cup are not taking part in Qatar, the team looks pretty similar looking four years back. While Didier Deschamps continues at the helm, the likes of Kylian Mbappe and Antoine Griezman are still instrumental for the national team.

France have reached the final by finishing atop Group D, ending with the “curse of the champion” in the process, before taking down Poland, England, and Morocco in the knockout stages. Will they add another trophy to their cabinet?
