France 1-1 Italy: key stats on Olise, Rabiot and notable streaks | OneFootball

France’s 1-1 draw with Italy in Saint-Denis on Friday night delivered several telling numbers.

L'Équipe highlights the standout statistics from the match.

Excluding Laurent Blanc in 2010, six of France’s last seven head coaches have stayed unbeaten through their first three matches. It was also their first draw since 13 October 2025, 0-0 against Iceland, ending a 16-game run, 13 wins and three defeats, the longest since November 2014 to June 2016, 17.

France have failed to score before half-time in their last seven matches, their longest such sequence since November 2009 to October 2010, 13. Yet they have found the net in 23 of their past 24 fixtures, 56 goals, the only blank in that span the World Cup semi-final against Spain, 0-2.

Michael Olise has produced a goal or assist in each of his last four outings, two goals and three assists. The last Bleu other than Kylian Mbappé to manage that was Randal Kolo Muani in 2024.

Adrien Rabiot recorded 11 touches in Italy’s box, the highest figure by a France central midfielder in the past 20 years.
