Euro 2020: Benzema and Mbappé excite France | Friendly France – Wales

France’s coming-out for the European Championship begins with a win over Wales. Mbappé, Griezmann and Dembélé give the main favorite to win the title 3-0 in the first friendly to prepare for the championship. A game in which the protagonist was Karim Benzema, who returned with his team and played the entire match, without finding a prize. He looked for it insistently, but there was no way, getting to miss a penalty and crashing a ball into the post. Benzema returned to put the French bleu five and a half years later and did it from the beginning. The Real Madrid forward was the apex in attack of a luxury trident in which he was accompanied by Griezmann and Mbappé. They completed Deschamps’ team: Lloris in goal; Pavard, Varane, Kimpembe and Lucas in defense and Pogba, Rabiot and Tolisso in midfield. Troops such as Coman, Dembélé, Koundé or Kanté, who have not yet joined the concentration, were kept. In front, Gareth Bale’s Wales, who will also be in the championship that begins next June 11. All eyes were on the Madrid player, who knew himself to be the protagonist and insistently sought the goal. But it was denied. The first opportunity carried his signature, combing a running ball that Ward stopped. In the next, it would cause a penalty. Pogba headed to the far post a Griezmann center that took the goal and the rebound was left to Benzema, who hit it in the small area and Williams prevented it from entering. The hand, this time from the goalkeeper, again avoided the Frenchman goal, which launched the maximum penalty, the penalty left Wales with 10, turning the game into a French monologue. The dominance was reflected in the result thanks to Mbappé.Ward rejected a shot from Rabiot that was complicated after touching Griezmann. The one from PSG was faster than anyone to arrive and shoot. The one desired by the Whites robbed the prominence of his teammate who may be in the not too distant future, scoring the first goal of the game. The young attacker had the double, but his shot went up. Just before, Benzema claimed another penalty. The French ’19’ suffered a clear grip at the exit of a corner that prevented him from connecting a good header. Neither the referee nor the VAR considered it to be a penalty. The Madridista continued to insist, but the goal was reluctant. As soon as the second half started, Mbappé confirmed himself as the player of the match, by assisting Griezmann. The FC Barcelona player took advantage of France’s ’10’ pass to score the second goal of the match. The match was more than sentenced, but Benzema continued to insist. The Madridista wanted to score on the day of his return and he was about to achieve it. He caught a ball outlined in the front and his shot, which went inside, was deflected after touching a Welsh defender, the next one he had that ended in a goal, but from Dembélé. The one of the Barça entered in place of Mbappé and found the goal that so much resisted to him to Benzema. The madridista hit her with everything, but crashed into the post. The winger took advantage of the rebound in the small area to make the third, and from there, you could tell that his teammates were looking for him to score. Deschamps left him 90 minutes on the field of play, probably with the same objective, but the forward was denied. From outside the area, the white striker hit it in search of the squad, but the ball went high.No news from Bale On the day that Carlo Ancelotti had left open the possibility of his return to Real Madrid, Gareth Bale did not appear. The Welshman had a chance to maintain the idyll he had with the goal in this final stretch of the course, but was barely seen during the 59 minutes he was on the Stade de France pitch. The only chance he had was with a header that Lloris rejected for a corner, but was invalidated by the still Madrid player’s offside. It is true that his selection was soon limited. The expulsion in the 25th minute left hardly any options to surprise the Welsh, who since then have been limited to trying to defend themselves, without much success, from the attacks of the French. Even the red Williams, Wales did complicate the favorite for this Euro. On the counter they found their few chances, with a shot from James that took the goal of Tottenham. On the brink of halftime, Wilson took a whiplash from outside the area that narrowly went wide.
