This Tuesday, the French team, finalist of the last World Cup and currently in good form, faces a Germany in crisis. While Rudi Völler will take over as interim manager tomorrow evening (8:45 p.m.) following the dismissal of Hansi Flick, the Mannschaft is moving forward with very little certainty. However, during the semi-final of Euro 2016, the match was much fairer on paper but the Blues had finally beaten their bête noire thanks to a great Antoine Griezmann, author of a double that evening (3 -1).

For the Atlético Madrid player, this meeting has a special place in his heart. The native of Mâcon also gave an update on the complicated situation that the selection across the Rhine is going through: “It’s my first fondest memory in the selection, when we qualified for the Euro 2016 final at the Vélodrome. There is a bit of this historic rivalry, desire and these are matches that you dreamed of playing when you were younger in front of the television. I am surprised by their performance, they have very great players. We learned for the coach, they have the players to make German football shine. I love Florian Wirtz for example, Josuha Kimmich, Leroy Sané.»
