Defeat does not pass. Not this one. Saturday evening, France destroyed Gibraltar in Nice (14-0). At the end of a historic encounter, the visitors sank from the first minutes of play. Own goal, red card, hat-trick from Kylian Mbappé… it was a long evening for Julio Ribas’ men.

As a reminder, in 2017, Belgium also devoured Gibraltar with a score of 9-0. The country’s heaviest defeat at the time.
