When and where is the Frana Inglaterra bronze match?

According to GE, Les Bleus meet the Three Lions on Saturday at 18:00 Brasília time at the Estádio de Miami, listed by Metrópoles as Hard Rock Stadium in the United States.

France reached the game after a 2-0 semifinal loss to Spain. England arrived after Argentina overturned an early lead in the other semifinal under Thomas Tuchel.

Broadcast coverage cited by GE and Metrópoles spans TV Globo, sportv, ge tv, Globoplay, NSports, SBT and CazéTV, with GE also offering real-time text updates.

What are the probable lineups for France and England?

GE's projected France XI under Deschamps: Mike Maignan; Lucas Digne, Maxence Lacroix, Dayot Upamecano and Jules Koundé; Adrien Rabiot and Aurélien Tchouaméni; Michael Olise, Désiré Doué and Ousmane Dembélé; Kylian Mbappé. William Saliba is out after leaving the Spain match injured; Theo Hernandez is expected to cover.

England's probable side: Pickford; Chalobah, Marc Guéhi, Stones, Nico O'Reilly; Elliot Anderson, Declan Rice; Bellingham; Madueke, Gordon, Kane. Jarell Quansah returns from a FIFA suspension. English reports say Tuchel may rotate after one fewer rest day than France.

Venezuelan referee Jesús Valenzuela Sáez will take charge, with Jorge Urrego and Tulio Moreno as assistants.

Why does the third-place game still matter?

Columnist Paulo Vinicius Coelho notes Mbappé can pull clear atop the World Cup scoring chart and climb the all-time World Cup goals table if he scores twice against England. Metrópoles reports Mbappé and Messi are level on eight goals; Harry Kane has six.

France previously took bronze in 1958 and 1986 and lost the playoff in 1982. England finished fourth in 1990 and 2018. Without the match, PVC writes, France would rank third on 18 points and England fourth on 16.

FIFA keeps the bronze game for commercial reasons, PVC argues, though it began in an Olympic spirit. For Deschamps, Saturday closes nearly 14 years with the national team—one more reason Frana Inglaterra is more than a footnote.
