France U17 and Mali U17 overcame Uzbekistan and Morocco, respectively in the U17 World Cup last-8 in order to set up their semi-final clash at the Manahan Stadium on Tuesday.
Jean-Luc Vanucchi's side risked disqualification from the tournament despite making it to the quarter-final stage after beating Senegal, as Les Bleuets are now the only side among the last-4 to have previously won the U17 World Cup.
On the other hand, after gaining some sort of revenge against Morocco for their U17 AFCON semi-finals ext, the Mamadou Traore-led Mali side are vying to reach the final for the second time following their runners-up finish in 2015.
