Solid and imperial in defense, Dayot Upamecano stands out as a real wall for the French team. During his last 17 tenure in the blue jersey, Didier Deschamps' men recorded 14 clean Sheets, testifying to his capital importance in the defensive solidity of the Blues. His impact in duels, his reading of the game and his physical power make him a major asset in the tricolor rearguard.
Conversely, his absence seems to weigh heavily on the French defense. Without UpameCano, the Blues did not succeed in any clean Sheet during their last 10 meetings, revealing recurring defensive weaknesses. An observation which further reinforces its essential framework status in the quest for new successes for the French team.
