While France was led 1-0 by Scotland at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy this Tuesday during a friendly match, the savior costume was worn by Benjamin Pavard. Surprisingly in an enclosure where he played with Lille, the 27-year-old defender – who was positioned in the axis of defense – scored twice (16th and 24th).

A great start to the match from the Inter Milan player who became the first defender to score with the Blues in ten years. The last person to achieve this performance was Mamadou Sakho on November 19, 2013 during the 2014 World Cup qualifiers against Ukraine, winning 3-0.
