UEFA Nations League: France Pull Comeback To Defeat Belgium, Face Spain In Finals

World Champions France forced a comeback against FIFA top-ranked team Belgium defeating them 3-2 to enter the final of the UEFA Nations League's second edition.

Roberto Martinez's men drew first blood in the contest with goals from Yannick Carrasco and Romelu Lukaku in the first half but Didier Deschamps' men showed courage and started the second half in an attacking fashion forcing two goals back after the interval.

Carrasco cut in from the left and unleashed a low strike that left Lloris stranded between the sticks with no chance in the 37th minute.

De Bruyne also teed up Romelu Lukaku three minutes later and the Chelsea striker pulled off a thunderous effort to beat the France goalkeeper from a tight angle.

Les Blues finally managed to hit the back of the net in the 62nd minute, when Kylian Mbappe set up Karim Benzema, who sent the ball past his Real Madrid teammate Thibaut Courtois.

Deschamps' men pushed for an equaliser and managed to grab one seven minutes later when Griezmann won a penalty, one which was converted by Mbappe.

From that point on it was an end-an-end game, with France trying to build on their momentum but lacking a finishing touch as Mbappe and Benzema failed to net a winner.

Lukaku thought that he completed a brace in the 87th minute when he netted a third for Belgium, but his goal was ruled out by VAR due to offside.

Then, Paul Pogba's brilliant free-kick crashed again the crossbar, but one minute later Theo Hernandez unleashed a strike from the edge of the box to net the decider and complete France's impressive comeback.

Deschamps' side have progressed to the Nations League final where, they will face Luis Enrique's youthful Spain at the Stadio San Siro in Milan.
