Sissoko is found on the right flank, before pinging a diagonal pass into Gignac. The substitute dances infield and picks out Griezmann, but a shot from the diminutive striker is blocked easily. The resulting corner is taken by Coman, but he takes it short into Mangala.
90'
Griezmann runs into trouble on the edge of the penalty area, with France's forwards looking a little bit leggy at this point. There are two minutes of stoppage time at Stade de France.
88'
Close for Ingason! The substitute takes a corner delivery off the foot of Gudjohnsen, who probably would have been able to lash home a close-range finish without his team-mate's intervention. France still are very much in a contest here.
86'
Sissoko is found haring down the right-hand side, but the ex-Toulouse midfielder can only blaze horrendously over the crossbar from a tight angle. France are still looking for another goal. Moments later, Mangala has to step in to deny a fantastic cross from Saevarsson.
84'
B. Bjarnason has scored a goal for Iceland! Assist by A. Skúlason.

80'
K. Coman enters the game and replaces D. Payet.
Coman comes into the game for France, with Payet taking his leave following another productive evening.
79'
The trailing side are still working very hard indeed to ensure that they aren't embarrassed by Les Bleus. B. Bjarnason is released down the left-hand side and whips in a cross, but Sagna rises above Gudmundsson to head clear. Skulason picks up the scraps, but then loses out to Sissoko.
77'
Iceland don't look to be able to mount any kind of big come-back, with Lagerback's half-time changes not turning his side into a more potent offensive machine. France still look as though they want to send their fans home smiling with another goal this evening.

E. Mangala enters the game and replaces L. Koscielny.
Koscielny takes his leave, with Mangala getting a 20-minute run-out.

70'
G. Sigurdsson whips another free-kick in from a dangerous area, but Koscielny and Sagna combine to clear. Immediately, France look to break, with Sissoko finding Payet on the left. The West Ham midfielder shoots across goal, but a deflection takes it into Halldorsson's side netting.
68'
Once again, Gignac tries to shoot from range but fails, as the Tigres man appears to fancy his chances of grabbing a goal tonight.

66'
Gignac checks back onto his right foot from the left-hand side, but sees an attempted shot charged down with ease. Iceland respond with an attack of their own, but Gudmundsson is penalised for a supposed push on Sagna. The Charlton man isn't happy at all.

58'
B. Bjarnason gets yellow.
Pogba takes aim from the best part of 30 yards, but his shot is straight at Halldorsson, who pats the ball down and claims at the second time of asking. Suddenly, the trailing side look a little more confident, but if they open themselves up too much, France will hurt them on the break.

54'
Deschamps has plenty of players out warming up on the sidelines, with Les Bleus having the luxury of resting players who are at risk of missing the semi-final through suspension. Iceland are trying to get a foothold in proceedings at present, but they are only seeing possession due to France's willingness to sit back and rest.
52'
France continue to dominate, with Iceland sat very deep indeed. Pogba tries his luck from the best part of 35 yards, but the Juventus man's effort zips off the turf and well wide of the left-hand post. Iceland are looking tired and uninspiring.
50'
Les Bleus have their tails up and they are playing neat, easy football at present. Evra is released down the left-hand side, before Griezmann and Sissoko link up. The latter takes a poor touch, with the loose ball falling out to Payet on the edge of the box, but the goalscorer's speculative effort soars over the bar.
48'
France get the ball moving once again for the second period, with Iceland's fans desperately trying to get their men pumped up once again. This could get very embarrassing if Deschamps' men are able to recreate their first-half showing.

Bodvarsson is replaced at the break, with Finnbogason coming into the fray up top.

42'
D. Payet has scored a goal for France! Assist by A. Griezmann.
GOOOOOOOOOOOAL! PAYET MAKES IT 3-0! That should be that. Griezmann tees up the West Ham midfielder on the edge of the box, who shifts possession onto his left foot neatly. A low, sizzling shot zips off the wet turf and inside the right-hand post. Deschamps' men should be home and dry now.
Griezmann is patient with his play once again, with the Atleti man proving his worth in the hole in behind Giroud.
41'
We're into the final five minutes of the first half, with France's fans urging their players towards the interval. A long ball looks for Gudmundsson down the left-hand side, but Sagna watches it all the way and heads clear. Moments later, B. Bjarnason earns his team a free-kick, which G. Sigurdsson takes, but the Swansea star's looping delivery is gathered up nervously by Lloris.
39'
Matuidi lashes a terrible shot some way wide of the right-hand post, but France continue to look the more likely to net the third goal of the evening. Deschamps' midfield selection is standing up to the test at present, with the absence of N'Golo Kante yet to be felt. Umtiti has also eased into proceedings after a nervy first 10 minutes for the debutant.
37'
France work the ball from left, to right, back to the left again. Iceland have to come out and chase, as they have no other choice but to hope that they can pull a goal back before the break.

35'
Evra breaks down the left, before being tugged to the ground by Gudmundsson, but the referee opts not to blow for a foul. Iceland look a little low on ideas, with France sitting deep and asking for their opponents to play percentage passes into high-risk areas.
33'
France are happy to take their time in attack, with the likes of Payet and Griezmann unafraid to look backwards rather than drilling a pass into the horde of white shirts on the periphery of the Iceland penalty area. With less than a quarter of an hour on the clock in this first half, Les Bleus haven't really needed to get out of second gear.
31'
Iceland are patient with their build-up play, but the trailing nation are yet to get in behind France at all. Long throws are proving to be their main threat at present, but another Gunnarsson hurl is headed well clear by Evra. Perhaps it is harder to launch it in without towels to dry the wet ball?
29'
The opening half an hour have been very comfortable for Deschamps' side, as France have dominated possession and not allowed G. Sigurdsson to get on the ball at all. Giroud manages to earn a corner from B. Bjarnason, but this time Payet's delivery is headed away by R. Sigurdsson.
28'
France continue to hunt in packs, with Pogba and Matuidi yet to be found out as sitting midfielders. The Juventus midfielder releases Giroud down the right-hand side, but the Arsenal striker's attempt back-heel into Sagna doesn't come off at all.
26'
Over the top from Bodvarsson! Gunnarsson chucks a long throw in from the right-hand side, with a flick-on from Sigthorsson finding the feet of his strike partner. Under pressure from Umtiti, however, Bodvarsson can only slide in and lift a terrible finish above the crossbar.
24'
Les Bleus are happy to just stroke the ball around and allow their opponents to chase, as Iceland have no option but to go looking for the two goals they need to tie things up. Payet feeds Matuidi down the left-hand side, but the PSG midfielder goes down looking for a penalty that was never likely at all.
22'
Bjarnason has another long-range effort, but the midfielder sends the ball sailing over the target. Iceland really need to try and respond soon, as they haven't looked as though they have three goals in them just yet. Lagerback might need to urge his players on a little more.
20'
Griezmann curls in a wonderful corner delivery from the right-hand side, which is too inviting for Pogba to turn down.
GOOOOOOOOOOAL! POGBA MAKES IT 2-0! The Juventus midfielder lifts a pass into the penalty area, which Griezmann flicks off his man to earn a corner. The Atleti forward curls in a delivery, with Pogba rising in towering fashion to thud a close-range header home! Les Bleus are in control.

18'

16'
Lloris claims another set-piece delivery from Iceland, with the trailing outfit struggling to do anything other than sit back and prey on opportunities to counter. As Les Bleus have the lead, however, they can play this contest at entirely their own pace. The French fans are making an absolute racket.
14'
Iceland manage to win a throw-in quickly after the restart, but Gunnarsson's delivery is nodded clear by Sagna, with Lagerback's plans unable to force a quick equaliser as they did against England. France are looking comfortable, with their fans urging them on to score another.
12'
O. Giroud has scored a goal for France! Assist by B. Matuidi.
Iceland are stringing together some neat passages of play, with Lagerback's side not afraid to get the ball down and try and play. Eventually, however, they always have to plump for a long ball up to Sigthorsson, but the former Ajax striker has the physical presence to allow G. Sigurdsson to feed off his scraps.
GOOOOOOOOOOOAL! GIROUD MAKES IT 1-0! FRANCE LEAD IN PARIS! The Arsenal striker is fed down the left-hand side, before being allowed to break into the penalty box, courtesy of a pass from Matuidi. The ex-Montpellier man rattles a powerful finish through Halldorsson and into the back of the net!
Matuidi lifts a lovely pass down the left channel, allowing Giroud to get in behind enemy lines and finish well.
10'

8'

6'
Good effort from Payet! France play some lovely interlinking football through the middle, with the West Ham midfielder teed up neatly by Pogba. The ex-Lille man shoots from range, but it finds the midriff of Halldorsson, who has to pounce upon the loose ball at a second attempt. Moments later, a cross from Sagna is smothered by the Icelandic shot-stopper.
5'
Gudmundsson is picked out scampering into the French penalty area, but the wide man's first touch lets him down at the vital moment. Deschamps' men really do need to switch on here, otherwise they risk falling behind against a resilient opponent.
4'
Lloris pings a nervy first clearance out of play, with Iceland continuing to press intelligently and high up the pitch. G. Sigurdsson has a shot, after neat hold-up play from Bodvarsson, but the Swansea midfielder can only shoot straight down the goalkeeper's throat.
2'
The rain is pouring down, making the surface into a very slippery and quick one. Griezmann wins an early free-kick from Gunnarsson, but Payet's delivery is cut short for a foul. Pogba is penalised for tugging on the shirt of R. Sigurdsson.
1'
We are underway in the first half in Paris! France will fancy their chances of joining Portugal, Wales and Germany in the next round, but this Iceland side really don't know when they are beaten. Could we see another upset?
TEAM NEWS: Samuel Umtiti gets the nod at centre-back alongside Laurent Koscielny, due to the absence of Adil Rami, with the young defender needing to impress ahead of a move to Barcelona. Paul Pogba and Blaise Matuidi appear to be in a deeper midfield two, allowing for Payet and Moussa Sissoko to play either side of Antoine Griezmann. Olivier Giroud leads the lead.
Didier Deschamps' men have perhaps underwhelmed a little up to this point, with the magic of Dimitri Payet being a big reason why Les Bleus are still fighting their way towards the final.
