England Versus France History
This will be just the second World Cup encounter between these two European superpowers and the first since 1982.
Since their first meeting 99 years ago, France and England have shared the pitch 31 times. The Three Lions lead the head-to-head series, having won 17 games, drawn five, and lost nine times versus Les Bleus.
We take a look back at both of the two countries World Cup matches.
England vs. France, FIFA World Cup 1966
While the 1966 World Cup is still remembered fondly in England, it was a disaster for France.
England won their first and only World Cup by leading Group 1, defeating France 2-0 in their final group match at Wembley Stadium. France was eliminated, coming last in the group.
Liverpool legend Roger Hunt scored twice in each half, fueled by a 98,000-strong crowd in London.
England vs. France, FIFA World Cup 1982
France and England faced again in the group stages in 1982, with the Three Lions defeating a squad led by the legendary Michel Platini.
Bryan Robson scored in the opening minute and added a second-half double to erase Gerard Soler’s equalizer. The strike by Paul Mariner clinched the deal.
England’s forgettable World Cup squad failed to create an impression and was ousted in the second round. France moved one step further, losing on penalties to West Germany in the semi-finals.
