While the France team is currently facing the Netherlands, several scenarios would allow Didier Deschamps’ men to punch their ticket for Euro 2024.

It was by winning brilliantly against the Netherlands that the French team perfectly launched its qualifying campaign for Euro 2024 last March (4-0 victory at the Stade de France). The Blues cross paths with the Oranje again this Friday evening for another enticing duel. In addition to the prestige of the poster at the heart of one of these many often tasteless international truces, the stakes will also add a little salt to this match for the French selection.

The French team has the opportunity to definitively punch its ticket for the European Championship in Germany. With a flawless record so far – 5 victories in as many outings – Didier Deschamps’ gang is only one step away from its goal.

2 scenarios for qualification

Two scenarios would allow the world vice-champions to seal their qualification for the continental tournament. The first depends only on them: a victory in the Netherlands this Friday evening would propel them to Germany. The second allows them not to win since in the event of a draw for the French in Amsterdam, a success for Ireland against Greece would also qualify them for the Euro.
