France reached the Nations League quarterfinals on Thursday after a dull 0-0 draw with Israel in a match overshadowed by tight security in and around the sparsely-filled Stade de France.

The hosts made the last-eight after group winners Italy defeated Belgium 1-0.

Thursday's game in Paris took place under heavy security after fans from the Maccabi Tel Aviv club were attacked in Amsterdam last week following a Europa League match against Ajax.

Amsterdam's mayor Femke Halsema said those attacks were a "poisonous cocktail of anti-Semitism and hooliganism".
