Between the difference in recovery (the Netherlands played against Poland on Sunday at 3 p.m., the Blues against Austria on Monday at 9 p.m.) and the length of the journeys, “DD” is upset.
The live stream of this match, much less annoying than feared, can be followed here.
The Team announces a 4-3-3 with Rabiot as a left “winger”, like Matuidi at the 2018 World Cup, and Thuram at the forefront rather than Giroud. Can we make a more Deschamps composition than this one, if this is confirmed?
The Blues are on their way to the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig. A priori, Mbappé should preserve his nose on the bench. But his misadventure against Austria inspired French fans.
This Netherlands – France, this Thursday in Leipzig, is the summit of group D, between two teams who won their first meeting in this German Euro, respectively against Poland (2-1) and against Austria (1 -0). It is reasonable to think that both teams will qualify for the round of 16. But we might as well wrap things up before the last day of the group, to be able to rest the troops a little during the third match and concern the “hairdressers”.
On the French side, the big question naturally revolves around the case of Kylian Mbappé, victim of a broken nose on Monday. Present, with or without mask, or simple spectator? We’ll see…
» Because a meeting between Oranje and Bleus often results in something nice, we meet from 7 p.m.
