From our special correspondent in Budapest,
Bad news for the South American atmosphere in the locker room of the France team, Ousmane Dembélé leaves the blue group due to injury. A hard blow which we will have to recover in the endless bubble in which the Blues have been barricaded for almost a month. Lucas Digne did not fail to pay tribute to Dembouz’s contribution to the workforce. “The whole group is sad and disappointed for Ousmane because he’s a great guy and a great player. He brings a lot of joy to the group and his quality on the pitch, so it’s a disappointment for us. “
Hit to a knee on Saturday during Hungary-France (1-1), Ousmane Dembélé is forced to forfeit the rest of the Euro. Good recovery Ousmane! 🇫🇷💪 #ProuddetreBleus

Benzema and the tap theory
The other disappointment of the moment is the start of the Euro for Karim Benzema. It is still too early to speak of a crisis. Because it’s Karim, who is inherently a world-class player, and because he’s only played four games since his return. Moreover, whether it is Griezmann on Sunday or Digne Monday, all agree that KB19 is doing well.
And then Antoine Griezmann’s cock theory makes its way into the Blues’ locker room. For Grizi, it only takes one goal for Benzema to engage the planting machine. A French remix of Cristiano Ronaldo’s famous metaphor on goals and the ketchup bottle, but more healthy. Yes, Cris, what’s the point of depriving yourself of Coke if it’s to sprinkle ketchup on your pasta?
The Blues program
D-1 before the last group match for the Blues against Portugal. Didier Deschamps will attend a press conference with one of his players before the match-day training session at 6.30 p.m. at the Nandor stadium.
