After a day of Monday devoted to arrivals and recovery for the players of the French team, Clairefontaine was animated in good humor on Tuesday with a first day of collective rehearsal concluded by a most fun opposition: a match of ten against ten on reduced field, with less high but wider cages and without goalkeeper.
To this little game concocted by Didier Deschamps, Lucas Chevalier and Brice Samba were responsible for composing the two teams by drawing among their teammates. On the one hand, the Yellow Rennais yellow team with Ousmane Dembélé, Randal Kolo Muani, Bradley Barcola, Adrien Rabiot, Mattéo Guendouzi, Jules Koundé, William Saliba, Ibrahima Konaté and Mike Maignan. On the other hand, in Orange chasuble, the formation of the last Lille bulwark made of Kylian Mbappé, Michael Olise, Désiré Doué, Warren Zaïre-Emery, Manu Koné, Aurélien Tchouameni, Jonathan Clauss, Lucas Digne and Benjamin Pavard.
Decisive coupon of knight
Very quickly, while Mbappé was able to respond early to Barcola, the Samba team took the ascendant, leading a 5-1 time thanks to a hatch of Dembélé and a realization of Rabiot. Only the improbable then occurred – a real raising fueled by knight, twice, Mbappé once again, olise and pavard.
Final score: 5-6 for the Orange team, with the key a sacred jar for the stunning winners of the day in Clairefontaine.
