The French team defeated Portugal on Friday and will face Spain next Tuesday in the first semifinal of the Euro Cup. Deschamps’ men beat the Portuguese in a penalty shootout, after regulation time and extra time ended 0-0. Below are the French players one by one.
MAIGAN Salvador
He saved several goals when Portugal pushed their hardest and showed his face until the end
KOUNDÉ Forceful
The best at the back, fine in the cut and over the top against Leao and Cristiano. The bee did not come down
UPAMECANO Sereno
He suffered from Leao’s attacks but was not broken, a wall
SALIBA Imperial
He is the ‘boss’ of the defence, strong and quick on the cut, providing security without hesitation
THEO Decisive
He had no problems at the back and scored the final penalty that gave France the ticket
KANTÉ Baga
Tireless, he made many meters and was the French soul in the midfield
TCHOUAMENI is required
He struggled in the Portuguese midfield, suffering in the duel stages more than the defensive contributions
CAMAVINGA Pressed
He did not play comfortably and struggled to mix with the forwards, but he had a goal in the 70th minute and his shot was deflected off the post.
GRIEZMANN Disappears
It became less, without any chance at the top despite the breaking lines
KOLO MUANI Lost
He fought his purpose off; He got the goal in the 66th minute but Rubén Días took it
MBAPPE Headdress
Forced to leave the green with discomfort in his nose after attempting a shot. He faced the venom and fought back but didn’t have a clear chance to score
THE CHANGES
DEMBELÉ Disgusting
He came out for a dull Griezmann and reactivated the attack but failed to identify
THURAM Electric
He had one last last breath of extra time
FOFANA Oxygenant
For a suffocating attack
BARCOLA Sterile
He fought without any purpose
