Seven months later after having already lost in Dortmund (2-1), the French team once again suffered the law of the Nationalmannschaft this Saturday, this time in Lyon (2-0). Amorphous and lacking ideas, Didier Deschamps' players struggled to exist in this meeting where they were completely outclassed.
By their own admission, the Blues each in turn recognized in front of the press their non-match, and above all, the superiority of their evening opponent. Rare fact: they were also unable to find the net in a match for the first time in… 15 matches (France-Tunisia (0-1) during the 2022 World Cup). On another level, they also allowed the Germans to put an end to a black streak that had been chasing them for quite some time. Because by keeping their clean sheet, Julian Nagelsmann's players simply recorded their first clean sheet in almost a year and a half. At the time, it was during a friendly victory against Oman (in November 2022).
