There is also a French team. He also just sent a sign of life from Lyon and the Groupama Stadium where he also beat Belgium (2-0), his favorite prey for six years. It’s simple: when the Blues don’t do well, they have to face the Red Devils, the victims you want for any occasion: World Cup, Nations League, Euro. They will meet again next month in Brussels, after traveling to Budapest to meet Israel, and the Belgians will have the right to try their luck again if they wish. In their place, we would give up but we are not sure they see it that way.

We like this French team that does not have a population of certain executives and its previous positive values ​​- Kylian Mbappé, Antoine Griezmann, substitutes Théo Hernandez at the beginning – have been launched in a climate of confidence, for its response. The name of Didier Deschamps was shouted by all the people of Lyon who were reduced, in the back of their favorite Turkey, Bradley Barcola, who entered in the 67th place in the place of Marcus Thuram in a game that ended with the Parisian attack of the past season: Ousmane Dembélé , Kylian Mbappé and therefore ex-Lyonnais.

Back to the Blues. They started the game at the end of their abomination, they knew they were expecting around the corner and it was as if they had just cried, or that Mike Maignan was still ringing in their ears.

Received the ball by Belgium, they suffered, saw Dodi Lukebakio hit the post (7th), Loïs Openda was opposing in the air and missed the goal for a foot too short, but they resisted, back to their great defensive air of Euro to have in a spinning but clumsy attack. Powered by this foundation – always with Didier Deschamps – they have gained ground gradually as one puts one’s nose out of the window to see the weather.

Under the efforts of the rediscovered midfielder – the surprise of Mattéo Guendouzi, guest at the last minute after the withdrawal of Aurélien Tchouaméni – they even developed the actions that were made, mainly thanks to the contribution of the full backs and to Ousmane Dembélé support. His divergent shooting will allow the opportunistic Randal Kolo Muani to score the first goal when he takes care of the second after socks, hooks and a sequence of left shots that are known to him by the heart but which do not succeed often enough.

Didier Deschamps avoided the embarrassment of a 3rd defeat in a row

Let’s say that if he repeats this balancing act regularly on the pitch, he will easily become one of the ten best players in the world while it would be rather a struggle to be ranked from 20th to 30th place over the years good For his 51st selection, he just got his sixth win, a rare total in a selection like France.

The collection methods of defense, the midfielder who keeps the ball and projects after suffering, our attackers and those who measure: the Blues saw a team this Monday, not the night we expected while is on paper on Friday at the Parc des. The princes seemed stronger against a weaker opponent than Belgium, Italy. So they were surprised at the same time as they allowed their coach to avoid a third defeat in a row, which would have thrown him into a complicated embarrassment.

The guide to the Blue House therefore also contains the keys to the site and achieves a new twist. Next month, we will have to confirm, continue, always in the same schedule, with two very different starting packages. It will be good if this time, we see the light only in the changes.
