In the first leg, won 1-0 by France, Les Bleus controlled possession and created plenty without taking their chances. Michael Olise struck in the 88th minute, a late and almost unexpected winner that prompted a vivid celebration from Zinédine Zidane.

For the return, the France head coach should field a less rotated side than last time, when nine of the usual 11 starters did not begin.

The competition is also available on La chaîne L'Équipe and L'Équipe live foot.
