France Dominates World Cup with Unprecedented Consistency

France has reached the World Cup semifinals for the third consecutive time, joining Brazil and Germany in the elite group. This series of three consecutive World Cup semifinals highlights the success of Didier Deschamps and the way he has regenerated the 2018 World Cup-winning team.

The consistency is that of a tight-knit staff and rare players who have accompanied the coach since 2018. The two quarterfinal goal-scorers against Morocco, Kylian Mbappé and Ousmane Dembélé, are the only ones to have played in these three World Cups. The captain of the Blues, N'Golo Kanté, has made a difference.

The coach has adapted more easily to a new generation and new attacking profiles because French football seems to have an inexhaustible reservoir of talents. The abundance was less noticeable, less impressive, at the beginning of the Deschamps era.

What explains this success?

The success of France in the World Cup can be explained by the consistency of its staff and players. The Blues have also benefited from the way clubs work. The Ligue 1 has played an important role in preparing the team.

What comes next?

France has a next match against England at home on July 18, 2026. The Blues are in form, with five consecutive wins. They have also won the Champions League twice in a row thanks to PSG.

The last victory of France was against Morocco, with a score of 2-0, on July 9, 2026. The Blues are in form and ready to face England in their next match.
