Euro 2024, here are France's opponents

The draw for Euro 2024 took place this Saturday. The French team now knows the names of the opponents it will face in the group stage.

There was suspense and a little tension this Saturday at the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg. And for good reason since the German city hosted the Euro 2024 draw ceremony. Having left the round of 16 of the last edition, the French team was waiting to know which teams were going to reserve the innocent hands of the various former players for it. footballers in charge of the draw. The Blues were not necessarily spoiled.

For its first match, France will face the final winner of the three play-off matches (two semi-finals and a final) between Poland and Wales on one side, and Finland and Estonia on the other. . The main course will then arrive with a clash against the Netherlands. And it was Blaise Matuidi who pulled the Dutch ball during the draw. Not a gift for the Blues.

Not easy

Then it will be time for the third match which will offer Austria to Didier Deschamps’ men. Again not a simple match since the Austrians finished second in their qualifying group, a very small point behind Belgium, with only one defeat in eight matches.
