The French team’s qualification for the semi-finals of the Olympic Games was tarnished by incidents at the end of the match.

The French Olympic team triumphed against Argentina (1-0) this Friday in the quarter-finals of the Olympic Games. This electric encounter was marked by several scuffles at the end of the match.

Tensions between the French and the Argentinians led to the expulsion of Enzo Millot, midfielder of the Bleuets. An unfortunate event that is far from being good for French coach Thierry Henry. The latter, visibly annoyed by this incident that he considered avoidable, expressed his discontent.

Henry is dejected

“I turned to go shake the hand of the opposing coach, and I saw a lot of things. I was just told that Enzo Millot got a red card. We’ll see if it’s deserved, but I don’t like that kind of thing. It wasn’t necessary. We’re losing a player, it wasn’t wanted and above all it’s unnecessary, he wasn’t on the pitch. I’m not happy.”declared the 98 world champion on France 3.

The French technician will therefore have to do without the Stuttgart player for the semi-final against Egypt, scheduled for next Monday.
