Former France manager Laurent Blanc said on Monday that he thinks France will beat Belgium in the World Cup semi-final and go on to be favourites to lift the World Cup. The 52-year-old tipped the winner of that semi-final to become the World Cup winners. He feels that France's greatest threat will come from Belgium's attack, and nullifying that would be key for France to claim victory. He was speaking at a charity match between FIFA legends and Special Olympic athletes.
