#WorldCup: 2 Reasons Why Suarez, Uruguay Should Be Afraid Of Mbappe, France

In a few minutes from now, two football powers, France and Uruguay will be fighting out for a semi final spot in the ongoing FIFA Russia 2018 World Cup with so much focus on PSG teenage sensation, Kylian Mbappe.

France only won the FIFA four year tournament when they hosted it in 1998, while has two world cup to her credit, these are the first one in 1930 and another in 1950.

There might be difficulty in predicting who will win this quarter final match, however, France are a dangerous side with Mbappe in hot form.

The top two reasons why Uruguay should be cautious of the French side are:

1. Mbappe has a blazing speed when he is moving forward with the ball, and it might be difficult for Godin to mark him. Argentina can vividly explain this when Marcos Kojo and Javier Mascherano suffered in the hands of the France teenage prodigy.

2. France are hungry for another major after bitterly losing the finals of the Euro 2016 finals to Portugal by 1-0. The French team will do all it can to send Uruguay back home just as it did to Argentina in the round of 16 by 4-3.

All eyes are on both teams as the game kicks off.
