tirto.id - St. Petersburg Stadium in the Russia's second biggest city will see the 74th meeting of two neighbouring Western Europe nations, and covering of live France vs Belgium World Cup 2018 will be watched around the globe through TV as well as internet streaming, live vertical timelines of news media and social media accounts.

The match between France and Belgium promises a good match of two contrasting sides in terms of playing style. The French, with a mix of senior and junior players in players such as Giroud and Mbappe, promises a wise play where the team will patiently wait for the best moments to launch a counter attack.

This is where Kylian Mbappe will have the opportunity to replicate his form during the battle against Argentina. His acceleration from his own area made Banega and Mascherano realized their old legs, and a Premier League back in Otamendi was forced to make a foul which eventually drew a crucial penalty.

Belgium will be guarded by Vertonghen on their left defensive side which is Mbappe's working area. Vertonghen may scored the confidence-elevating goal against Japan, but no one will doubt that he is no match for the Fench’s brightest promise.

In the live France vs Belgium World Cup 2018, though, we shall see that Belgium will compensate their defensive weakness with the never say die spirit such as evident in the win against Japan when they made the miraculous comeback after trailing 0-2.

But it will be also a show of the Belgium golden generation, with household names such as Hazard, Lukaku and Mertens, or even the lesser known like Chadli. Roberto Martinez is able to set differences in clubs, cultures and language aside -- Belgium players spek French, Flams and German -- to create an integrated, cohesive team that keeps on shining brightly on Russian turfs.

While France may need to wait for another geniuses of Mbappe's age, Belgium has already have their promised players. The catastrophe of the Euro 2016 had been forgotten, and the golden generation is much better in knowing each other as reflected in the 14 goals tally during the World Cup 2018.

The live French vs Belgium World Cup 2018 will see a promise of French next generation of players vs Belgium sparkling generation. A fight worth watching indeed.
