France: Early World Cup out for Lucas Hernandez

The reigning world champion just can’t get rid of the injury witch. After Christopher Nkunku and Karim Benzema, who had to declare a forfait before the start of the World Cup, Lucas Hernandez is now also out. The defender injured his right knee during the opening stages of France’s opener against Australia in Qatar on Tuesday. After the examinations, there is now clarity: the cruciate ligament of the 26-year-old Bayern player has torn. From now on, France will most likely tackle the mission of defending their title with Lucas’ brother Théo Hernandez (AC Milan) at left-back.
