After defeating Morocco, France secured their place in the World Cup semi-finals for the third consecutive tournament, with three French players having been part of the squad at all three World Cups.
France reached the semi-finals at three consecutive World Cups in 2018, 2022 and 2026. According to statistics, Mbappe, Dembele and Lucas Hernandez, all members of the current France squad, have played in the semi-finals of all three World Cups.
Previously, only Germany striker Miroslav Klose held the record for appearing in the semifinals at three consecutive World Cups; from 2002 to 2014, he was part of the team that reached the semifinals at all four World Cups.

What do you expect, they will qualify a 100 times until fifa realises that its not a national team but a club squad just like man utd. France team is just man at work, immigrant workers. Do you think that if if was Nigeria or any African Caribbean country doing the same fifa would not act. They would have put a cap on immigrant nationals long back. How you have 100% black players and 0% black fans. You don't even see their families on the stands. Senegal, Ghana, Nigeria would assemble 2 strong national squads from their foreign nationals snatched by these powerful nations. Next edition we will have all black squads from France, Canada, USA, England, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium. No black officials in the knock out stages, no black managers.

What do you expect, the will get into 100 semi-finals until fifa realises that its not a national team but a club squad just like man utd. France is just man at work. Immigrant workers posing as nationals. Would fifa accept if it was Nigeria composed of only white players winning the world almost every edition. I don't think so.
