He had something to prove in this France-Scotland friendly match. And it’s not with this start to the match that he’s going to score points. Eduardo Camavinga, very often aligned left defender with Didier Deschamps, was for once starting in midfield in blue, his favorite position. A tenure which was not successful for him, as evidenced by his performance from the 10th minute.
On an innocuous Scottish back cross, the Real Madrid midfielder intercepted with his right foot before rushing to make a pass with the same foot a priori in the direction of Aurélien Tchouameni.
???????? FRANCE 0 -1 SCOTLAND ????????????????????????????
11′ – Goal for Scotland! In the area, Camavinga makes a mistake and offers a goal ball to Billy Gilmour, who deceives Maignan. Scotland opened the scoring, to everyone’s surprise! #FRACCO

Except that the realization was completely missed. Instead of finding his club partner, Camavinga gave a superb offering which Billy Gilmour came to transform with a beautiful curling shot with his right foot. This is his first goal with the Scottish selection. On the action, Mike Maignan, remaining motionless, was unable to do anything.
Fortunately, the Blues reacted very quickly to a corner thanks to Benjamin Pavard. The Inter Milan defender, who also had a lot to prove with this tenure as central defender, a very rare occurrence under the orders of Didier Deschamps, found the net by uncrossing his header from a very well taken corner from Antoine Griezmann, before doubling the lead a few minutes later.
