ENG

Away

Third-place finals are decided as much by appetite as by ability, and France carry a marginal edge in the individual quality available to turn a flat occasion. England will not lack for organisation, but the residue of a semi-final defeat tends to weigh heavier on the side still searching for its identity in these tournaments. Expect an open contest that France shade if their attacking players treat it as a stage rather than a chore.

• Motivation after semi-final disappointment
• France's superior attacking depth
• England's defensive structure under pressure
