England’s toughest test in their quest to bring football home takes place on Saturday evening, as the Three Lions take on the defending champions.
France haven’t really moved out of first gear in Qatar – and Kylian Mbappe has been the man of the moment for Les Blues. However, as the two sides brace themselves for a World Cup defining clash, there will be some stunning onlookers hoping France gets the job done.
From a tattooed-covered beauty to long-term partners, they will be a sight for sore eyes if England can dump out the defending champions.
Theo Hernandez – Zoe Cristofoli

Native Italian Zoe Cristofoli is easy to spot in the stands thanks to her unique look – and the stunning brunette is covered from head to toe in tattoos.
Zoe was born in Verona, and she met Theo Hernandez in Milan, just under an hour away from William Shakespeare’s idyllic home of star-crossed lovers. And the pair are keen to show off their love on social media.
Alongside supporting her partner, Zoe owns a tattoo parlour in Turin.

Antoine Griezmann and Erika Choperena are happily married these days, but the Atletico Madrid star had to pursue the stunner for a “year-and-a-half” before she agreed to a date.
“Erika was studying in a school next to where I trained, we crossed roads a couple of times and we began to text each other,” Griezmann explained in his autobiography. “For a year-and-a-half, I sent her messages, I tried to seduce her.”
The pair have three kids together – and Erika dedicates her Instagram to the family life.
Matteo Guendouzi – Mae Guendouzi

Matteo Guendouzi struggled on the pitch in his final seasons at Arsenal – but he certainly didn’t off it, and he bagged his stunning wife Mae Guendouzi.
The pair welcomed their first child last year, and Guendouzi announced his wife’s pregnancy by stuffing the ball up his shirt after netting for Hertha Berlin. Guendouzi tweeted: “Striker…and Future Father.
“Happy scorer for my wife and my future daughter! Best way to start 2021 ! Let’s go Hertha”.

Alicia Aylies is the long-term girlfriend of footballing superstar Mbappe – who has been putting himself forward as the best footballer on the planet in Qatar.
Alicia is a beauty pageant model, and she was crowned as Miss France 2017, having previously won Miss French Guinea the previous year. The stunner went on to represent France at Miss Universe later that year, but failed to podium.
Alicia and Mbappe like to keep their relationship out of the public eye.

Alphonse Areola hasn’t had any minutes on the pitch in Qatar – but it hasn’t stopped his stunning wife from supporting him.
Away from the pitch, Marrion is an influencer, and her fitness website offers health, fitness and lifestyle advice for a £7-per-month fee. Marrion also gives an insight into her fitness-based lifestyle on Instagram – where she boars over 100,000 followers.
The duo married in 2014, and they since have welcomed three kids.
