France quickly took control of the game and in the 15th minute came very close to scoring the lead through Doue, but the Paris Saint Germain striker was unlucky as his shot was stopped by the crossbar. Then it was Lepaul who made his attempt but his shot was saved by Lammens. Belgium tried to respond with De Bruyne who threw a ball to De Ketelaere but the latter could not take advantage of it. However, France was superior and who wanted more goals but could not, thanks to the Belgian goalkeeper Lammens who made several interventions while keeping the goal intact and the first half ended 0-0.
At the start of the second half, France came close to scoring a second goal, first through Diouf and then through Da Cunha, but the latter's shot hit the post.
