France loses to Italy

France, which was hurt by Italy's pride, beat Belgium to show off its robustness.

France, ranked second in the FIFA rankings, beat Belgium 2-0 in the second leg of Group A of the 2024-25 UEFA Nations League Group A at Grupama Stadium in Fras Lyon on the 10th.

On the day, France made extensive changes to its starting members. It changed eight players except for three who started the first match against Italy. Only goalie Mike Menyang AC Milan, central midfielder N'Golo Kante Altihad and center back William Saliba Arnall played in the match against Italy.

Even star players Kylian Mbappe Real Madrid and Anthony Griezmann Atletico Madrid started off the bench. Instead, Randal Kolo Muan Paris Saint-Germain, Marcus Thurang Inter Milan, and Usman Dembele Paris Saint-Germain, who did not start in the match against Italy, led the forward line of attack.

France scored the first goal in the 29th minute of the first half. When Dembele's right footed shot from the right side of the penalty area hit the goalkeeper's hand, Colomouani shook the net with a left-footed shot from the left side of the goal area.

France ended the first half 1-0 with Dembele's additional goal just 12 minutes into the second half. Dembele dug in from the right side of the penalty area and opened the scoring with a left-footed shot.
