Back underway after the cooling break!

There’s a brief cooling break here as both teams settle into what will be the routine for the summer’s World Cup.

A time for both managers to take stock too. You’d imagine Ancelotti and Deschamps will both be happy so far, though the Brazil manager might want his side to take a bit more control in possession.

For France, they just need the final ball to click in attack.

Both sides have settled well here but its the French who are dominant in possession, while Brazil have mainly had to settle for dangerous counter-attacks.

There’s another opening for Les Bleus as Ekitike beats his man in the box. He hangs up a cross to the back post but there’s no one arriving to tap it in.

Plenty of talent on the pitch and it’s making for some lovely passing combinations so far. The latest sees Mbappe trying o thread through Ekitike in the box, but Leo Pereira read it well.

Moments before, Casemiro had played a lovely long ball to release Raphinha, but he made a hash of the cross.

Brazil might be the ‘worse’ team on paper but they move the ball very well when they get the chance.

Mbappe’s flick is intercepted and the Selecao put a slick counter together, though it ends with Raphinha’s cross being put behind for a corner.

Nothing comes of the set-piece though.

First dangerous free-kick of the game as Wesley drags down Ekitike.

Olise delivers a decent ball across to the back post but Rabiot bundles it wide.

An easy enough corner for France as Konate picks out Mbappe and he wins the set-piece off Bremer.

However, Ekitike loses the ball near the box and Brazil counter.

Cunha carries the ball into the France half and finds Vini Jr on the left. The Man Utd forward wants the return pass but Vinicius opts to try and shoot, and it’s blocked by Upamecano.

End-to-end at the start in Foxborough!

Oh, half a chance for Brazil! France are caught napping and Casemiro pings a free-kick into the path of Raphinha.

He’s under pressure from Konate and he ends up blazing a half-volley over.

France are already venturing forward to good effect, though their first real move ends in Gusto’s cross being headed behind, and Les Bleus can’t make anything of the corner.

A bit of a delay before kick-off but we’re finally underway in a clash between two international giants!

Just 77 days until the World Cup gets started, with the Gillette Stadium hosting several games including Scotland’s opener on 13 June.
