France is one of the strongest teams in the world for several reasons. First, France has a talented squad with some of the best players in the world. Furthermore, France have a history of success in the World Cup, having won the World Cup in 1998 and reached the final in 2006. They also showed their strength in this World Cup by beating England in a superb game.
In World Cup, to win one World Cup, you need more than history. Of course, historic success can help one team more confident with what they can achieve but in reality, they must be strong, smart and lucky enough to win World Cup.
France have good World Cup record with two titles and one failed final match but this record is not better than Brazil, Italy, Germany or Argentina. Anyway if we are looking at the present, France have a very good team and they are continuing their success in World Cup 2018. They are very likely to have another World Cup final because undoubtedly France are stronger than Morocco in an upcoming semi-final match.
France were a victim of Greece in Euro 2004 final match so they must be more careful this time with another under dog team.
