1-1 of France against Morocco

Hugo Lloris

Historical

He surpassed Manuel Neuer as the goalkeeper with the most games played (19) in the history of World Cups and was again key to France with his security under the sticks. He avoided making it 1-1 before the break by getting a fantastic overhead kick from El Yamiq to the post.

5

Koundé

sign

The Barça winger didn’t suffer in the first half, but he struggled when Attia Allah came on after the break. He resisted the Moroccan’s most oppressive moments and ultimately avoided several goals.

4

Varane

sober

The Manchester United centre-back stayed in his place at all times and reliably cleared the ball, like the one who cut through the lines in the goal that opened the scoring.

24

Konate

Providential

Replacing Upmecano in the starting eleven, the Liverpool central defender was a bulwark in the French defence. Always well placed, he tired to cut balls in very compromising situations.

22

Theo Hernandez

Offensive

The Milan winger scored a goal, his second as a French international, which opened the victory thanks to his vocation in the attack and suffered in defense in the second half of the waves from Achraf and Ziyech on his wing.

8

Tchouameni

Mainly

The Real Madrid midfielder starred in a remarkable match as he excelled in recovering balls and serving them to his teammates with care in the offensive phase.

13

Youssouf Fofana

generous

Replacing the absent Rabiot in the starting team, the Monaco midfielder did what was expected of him: a major physical display in the battle put on by Morocco.

Eleven

Ousmane Dembele

Intermittently

His start to the game promised some unbalanced action, but as the minutes went by his influence on the game diminished and he played little before being substituted.

7

griezmann

Omnipresent

The Atlético player, who was chosen MVP, completed another perfect game in this World Cup. He performed at a high level in his role as a midfielder, although his work was not only limited to distributing balls in support of the wingers, but also sacrificed himself in defensive work and reduced a couple in the small area in the face of Moroccan harassment.

10

mbappe

Up

He had an interesting rivalry with Achraf. In the first part his friend won the game. In the second it had more space, it was more recognizable in some escapes of the house brand. Already in 9 functions after replacing Giroud, his internship in the middle of the defense ended with 2-0.

9

Giroud

stupid

At 1-0 he had a great opportunity to increase the score but he crashed his whiplash on the post. He had another option but the French team’s new all-time top scorer was uninspired and replaced.

26

Marcus Thuram

Disgusting

Deschamps brought him on for a tired Giroud and the Gladbach striker, who occupied Mbappé’s left wing, gave the French attack a different air and more mobility.

12

Chief Muani

Decisive

He replaced Dembélé and the Eintracht striker’s distraction had an immediate impact when the first ball he touched sent him into the net after a defensive rebound.
