The party was not as complete as expected. By conceding a draw against the devious Greeks this Tuesday evening, in Athens (2-2), the Blues added a draw and two goals conceded to their record, so far perfect, in the Euro 2024 qualifiers. Some figures around this match.

This is the first time during these qualifiers that the Blues have conceded two goals in the same match. It’s very simple anyway: they had only conceded one goal, in October against the Netherlands (2-1), during their first 7 meetings. If they had been found wanting twice against Germany, in September (2-1 defeat), the last time they had conceded two goals or more in an official match, it was against… Argentina , in the World Cup final (3-3).

Youssouf Fofana scored his second goal for the France team, the second in two matches after unlocking his counter on Saturday evening, against Gibraltar (14-0). He now has the same number of goals for the Blues as the other French scorer of the evening, Randal Kolo Muani.
8/9
Passer on Youssouf Fofana’s goal, Kylian Mbappé was decisive in 8 of the 9 matches he played with the France team in 2023 (10 goals, 7 assists).
84
It was Antoine Griezmann’s 84th consecutive appearance for the French team, a record that grows deeper by the day. Since his debut with the Blues in 2014, he is the only player to have more than 100 caps at international level. He has 109 starts in 126 caps.
