Chelsea will have at least two players in the World Cup final.
Olivier Giroud and N’Golo Kante both started as France beat Belgium in a tight game.
Kante was exceptional again, while Giroud’s performance raised some eyebrows on social media.
There were some pretty funny reactions as he fluffed a few easy shots. As always, Twitter was on hand with some responses to his showing.

Olivier Giroud is yet to hit the target with any of his 10 shots at this #WorldCup.
He is the only one of the 84 players to have attempted six or more shots at the tournament and yet to hit the target with a single one. ❌ pic.twitter.com/pW3tz7SI8J
