Look what they make you give - Cristian Rodriguez is in floods of tears as we enter the last few minutes.

85min: France 2-0 Uruguay

There's a lot of very sad looking Uruguayans crying into their facepaint. Losing in a quarter-final is never nice but especially defeats like this are hard to take.

81min: France 2-0 Uruguay

France’s second goal took all the sting out of this game. They are just about 10 minutes away from cruising into the semis.

80min: France 2-0 Uruguay

France midfield Tolisso makes the slow departure off the field to be replaced by Nzonzi.

This is all playing into France's hands though.

Mbappe and Rodriguez booked as tempers boiling over now. Mbappe goes down holding his face after a scuffle with Rodriguez. Players from both sides then get involved with handbags - including Paul Pogba, who is rather unforunate to escape being punished for raising his hands to Nahitan Nadez's head.

64min: France 2-0 Uruguay

Uruguay respond with a slow shot flying wide from the edge of the box, but Lloris had that covered.

56min: France 1-0 Uruguay

It looks like Uruguay opt Plan B as they bring on Max Gomez for Cristhian Stuani while Bentancur departs for Cristian Rodriguez

56min: France 1-0 Uruguay

Since half-time Uruguay have had one badly sliced shot wide and nothing else. They need to boast about in an attacking sense or now the South American benche should look for Plan B.

46min: France 1-0 Uruguay

A glimpse of what could happen. France turn the ball over, there's space in behind for the first real time and Griezmann is a half-second away from sending Mbappe clear.

45 minutes left for Uruguay to reply as 2nd half gets underway.

Good response from France who were starting to get overrun.

Sloppy start for France. Now Uruguay find space to attack the right flank and it results in Cristhian Stuani dragging wide across goal.

2min: France 0-0 Uruguay

This could become a physical match quite quickly and already Uruguay are up to their tricks as Jose Gimenez leaves a sneaky foot on the achilles of Olivier Giroud who just needs a moment or two to recover before the game continues.
