Nati opponents Wales lose to France

France 3-0 Wales
In a week the national team will open their European Championship campaign with the game against Wales. On Wednesday, the Welsh team will complete a test match around Tottenham star Gareth Bale. The opponent: title favorite France. There is also a spectacular comeback: Real striker Karim Benzema (33) is back. He has not shown up for the French since October 2015. The reason for this is said to have been the publication of an intimate video. The act is now statute-barred, which is why France coach Didier Deschamps is calling the 33-year-old back. The return failed in a playful way. Benzema misses a penalty after 27 minutes and doesn’t really get going. His colleagues do better – Mbappé and Co ensure a sovereign 3-0 victory against the first group opponent of the Swiss national team.
The goals:
34th Mbappé 1-0, 47th Griezmann 2-0, 79th Dembélé 3-0.

Germany – Denmark 1: 1
This game is also marked by a very special return. In November 2018, Müller and Hummels were last on the field for the German national team. Around two and a half years later, they are making their comeback – Löw has brought the 2014 world champions back into the team for the European Championship. They are also in the starting line-up against Denmark. Hummels directs the game behind, Müller occasionally puts pinpricks on the offensive. You get involved in the game quickly, but neither of them is brilliant. Because Germany is unlucky twice and only hits aluminum, the game ends in a draw. The Champions League heroes Havertz, Werner and Rüdiger are not yet in the DFB squad. The same applies to city players Gündogan.
The goals: 48th Neuhaus 1: 0, 71. Poulsen 1: 1.
