The French football team only needs one additional victory to qualify for Euro 2024. The Blues play it this Friday evening in Amsterdam against the Netherlands, who have a revenge to play.
The Blues know the formula. They won the first leg against the Netherlands, 4 to 0. In any case, Ibrahima Konaté is very motivated, but the imposing Liverpool defender is wary of this vengeful Dutch team. “We’re playing big, especially in this match. Now we have a qualification to go for and they also have a revenge to play; notably playing with Virgil van Dijk in my team. We discuss it a lot and it’s true that they are waiting for us around the corner,” he analyzes.
A team from Imperial France
Except last month for a friendly defeat in Germany, the France team has been imperial since the final of the last World Cup. The Blues have not conceded a single goal in these qualifications for the Euro and are close to the goal, affirms the 1998 world champion Franck Leboeuf interviewed by Europe 1. “I have no doubt that France will qualify for the “Euro. The French team gives me real satisfaction when I see them. I like the game, I like the identity, I like the mentality of the players,” he confides.
As for the attack, the Blues are counting on a revival of Kylian Mbappé who has not scored a single goal in four games.
