The match against Kazakhstan (0-2) served to relaunch several players for the European Championship. One of them is Ousmane Dembelé, who played his first match as a starter since 2018 and who was one of the great sensations of the French national team. The Barcelona striker scored 0-1 and had one of his best matches in his 23 caps with France, earning the praise of the press and Deschamps, who could line him up again today as a starter.
Another of those who have earned the confidence of the coach is Lemar. After two years at an irregular level at Atlético, Sunday was a breath of fresh air between the lines. He brings a lot of temper in each attack and he combined very well with Griezmann and Martial. France, which today can hit the table in the group, has had enough problems in the last two games to generate chances, as Mbappé, who was a substitute in Kazakhstan, has not yet finished settling in a team full of talent, but with doubts to empower them.
AS to follow: Mbappé. Today will be the headline and yes or yes it must be the night of its claim.
