The French team concluded its American tour with a convincing victory against Colombia (3-1), confirming the dynamic established after the success against Brazil. Serious and diligent, Didier Deschamps’ men quickly took control of the match thanks to good collective control and notable offensive efficiency. A double from Désiré Doué and an achievement from Marcus Thuram allowed the Blues to make the difference, before a late reduction in the score for the Colombians.
Overall dominant despite a slight relaxation at the end of the match, the Tricolores end this international break on a very positive note as the World Cup approaches. Enough to score points on certain days including Maghnes Akliouche. “Akliouche? He puts a lot of speed, percussion, he has a big running volume, he was a little shy on the first rally and he broke free, he is capable of doing very good things“, he declared on the microphone of TF1. These are good points taken nonetheless.
