Daily Digest: Ukraine v France and Doué shines for Les Bleus | OneFootball

This Friday, September 5, the French press (on the sports side) focused on nothing direct regarding Paris Saint-Germain. The main topic is the French National Team, with 5 Parisians (Lucas Chevalier, Lucas Hernandez, Désiré Doué, Bradley Barcola, and Ousmane Dembélé), who will start their qualification for the 2026 World Cup against Ukraine (with Ilya Zabarnyi) tonight. There is also a mention of Doué's adaptation with the Bleus.

Le Parisien –

L’Equipe –

It's the beginning of the end for coach Didier Deschamps, who will leave his role at the end of France's journey in the 2026 World Cup. A significant moment, but we must not look too far ahead. The main goal is to qualify. This starts with a strong performance tonight, and nothing will be easy against Ukraine. We saw, for example, Germany being surprised in Slovakia (2-0).

We hope to see a great performance from the Bleus to kick off well, with Barcola and Doué expected to be starters. This is an opportunity for the latter, in particular, to showcase his impressive adaptation, as highlighted in the press. We can only wish him well.
