Seriously, that squad depth is something else.

Can anyone stop France at this year's World Cup?

FULL-TIME

That's it from today's big international clash. A spirited solo performance from Doue helps light France's 3-1 win over Colombia.

Goal, but it's offside.

Mbappe races through to the sounds of cheers from fans and cheekily rounds the goalkeeper before putting the ball home from a tight angle. But it doesn't count.

It's interesting that France's "stronger" squad is on the pitch and Colombia look better now?

More chaos now! This has truly been end-to-end. Colombia have not one, not two but three attempts blocked in the box.

France could have regained their three goal lead but an effort was cleared off the line.

Colombia are really pushing for a second in these final frames. That drive should've arrived a lot earlier, though.

More stars arrive as Mbappe and Olise join the action.

GOAL!

Out of nowhere, Colombia pull one back. They can't turn it all around, surely?

Jaminton Campaz snipes a shot from a tight angle inside the box and France are slightly stunned. Patience proves vital for the South Americans!

We have some late drama coming up now in the final 15 minutes...

Some stat for the PSG starlet.

Colombian captain James Rodriguez is done after 64 minutes of action.

Meanwhile, France bring on Camavinga, Kolo Muani and Ekitike

Some season the 20-year-old PSG star is having!

More substitutions now...

GOAL!

As we noted earlier, Doue is looking particularly hungry.

It's now two goals for the national team as he makes it 3-0 in the game. France picked off a poor pass, hit on the break and he was left unmarked in the box to smash home.

Luis Diaz is trying to take it upon himself to change the scoreline. But he can't control the ball well enough in the box.

Colombia made three changes at the break.

Richard Ríos off for Gustavo Puerta, Jhon Arias out for Andrés Gómez, and Luis Suárez for Jhon Córdoba

SECOND HALF UNDERWAY

Let's see what the second 45 minutes of drama will bring us this time.

Half-time and it's France up by two.

Colombia will want more from James and Luis Diaz. Let's see what they can cook up after the break.

CHANCE!

Doue is hungry for more it appears and goalkeeper Álvaro Montero tips his effort over the bar.

GOAL!

Les Bleus have now doubled their lead just 12 minutes after the opener.

Thuram, who assisted the first, leapt highest between two centrebacks and his header met the ball perfectly.

Here's a look at that Doue celebration.

It's a first goal for Doue in the iconic French blue.

GOAL!

France have grabbed the lead after Thuram sets up Doue on the edge of the box. The PSG ace then scored his low drive into the bottom corner.

BIG CHANCE!

The ball rolls away from goal as its set up for James Rodriguez racing forward but the No. 10's low drive is saved at the near post.

Free-kick attempt from Lucas Digne goes right into the wall.

BIG CHANCE!

Now at the other end, it's Colombia flying forward. Arias is racing towards the goal, trying to connect with a cross into the box, but France's defence intercepts.

BIG CHANCE!

Thuram attempts to round the goalkeeper but the angle is too tight. France will want that back.

Colombia are trying to hit on the break a few times. This is already an energized contest between two heavyweights.

It's Warren Zaire Emery with the first genuine attempt but he drags his shot wide right of the net.

KICK OFF!

We're underway in the United States.

Depth upon depth for Les Bleus.

It's N'Golo Kante as captain for France while James Rodriguez wears the armband for Colombia.

And here are your starting line-ups.

There are plenty of stars between these two teams. Who will shine brightest? Let us know in the comments below.
