The catastrophic statistics of Belgium against France

Euro 2024 is over for Belgium. Beaten 1-0 by France, Domenico Tedesco’s team must pack its bags and return to the Flat Country. A small disappointment for the Red Devils who are nevertheless used to this situation against the Blues. If we remember the semi-final of the 2018 World Cup won 1-0 by France and the semi-final of the Nations League where the Blues came back from 0-2 to win 3-2, the French victory in official competitions against Belgium is recurrent.

This is the sixth time in six matches in an official tournament that Les Bleus have won against the Belgians. In addition to these three recent matches, France won 3-1 in the round of 16 of the 1938 World Cup, which was hosted on French soil. The same story was told in France in 1984 during the Euro, won by Les Bleus with a 5-0 victory in the group stage. Finally, during the 1986 World Cup, France won 4-2 in extra time in the final for third place.
