Blunt, the French. After 17 games of a year rich in emotions, the Blues of Didier Deschmaps no longer had much in the tank last night to make a difference in the face of spirited ivorians.
lessons
The 4-3-3 may be well controlled, Golo Kanté may be one of the best sentinels in the world, the animation offensive habs can hardly miss the schema adopted from the famous 8th-finals of the Euro against Ireland. Antoine Griezmann has been sorely missed behind the striker edge of the Blue last night, he called Kevin Gameiro or Olivier Giroud after the hour of play.
Not dangerous enough, the men of Deschamps could not have hoped for better.
The turning point
In the first half, the Blues have given the impression of mastering their subject, but the biggest opportunities have been in côte d’ivoire. A striking Kodjia deflected by Costil on a Salomon Kalou fortunately too short (29th), a cover moved to the side of Gradel (36th), but the biggest opportunity, it is without a doubt this shot with the outside of the left Traoré came crashing into the left post of Costil (12). The leather is then returned on Kalou who only had to push it into the empty net, but fortunately for the French, the latter was out of the game. To 0-1 early in the match, and having regard to the physical difficulties the French, not sure the Blue would be income.
The players
on the French Side, we have particularly scrutinized the benefit of those that we don’t often have the opportunity to see it evolve under the tunic blue. For his first, Adrien Rabiot was equal to itself, displaying the level that we know him with the PSG since the beginning of the season. Calm, confident, serene, it did not seem to suffer the crossing of the cape international, perhaps thanks to the numerous european title that he had already delivered with his club. It offers in any case a solution in the midfield frenchman Didier Deschamps. This cap, Ousmane Dembélé has not yet been taken. The former attacker of rennes has sometimes seemed lost on the lawn lensoise. At 19, he is probably not even close to an encounter of this level. Reminder : he’s only 49 professional matches in the legs. A year ago, it was totally ignored.
let us close with two hitters who were not insured : the two goalscorers in the face of the Swedes. Dimitri Payet and Paul Pogba have not reproduced their good performance of last week-end. The first showed a rough draft, sometimes even be enough, especially in the first act, and the second ran out of juice in all. Nothing serious. Nothing which will in any case their status in question.

Capitanats for Raphael Varane. The central defender madrid 23 year old, who was celebrating his 35th selection with the Blue yesterday evening, has worn the armband for the 6th time with the team of France, which he began attending in march of 2013 (3-1 in the face of Georgia). He is the vice-captain behind Hugo Lloris. His exit at half-time, he entrusted the cuff to his deputy, Laurent Koscielny, which was worn for the first time with the Blues after 42 selections.
