France/Morocco – France’s player ratings in the press: a major display | OneFootball

As part of the 2026 World Cup quarter-finals, the France national team was at Gillette Stadium in Boston this Thursday to face Morocco and won 2-0 (France/Morocco video highlights). A match involving 6 Paris Saint-Germain players. 5 on the French side: Lucas Hernandez, Warren Zaïre-Emery, Désiré Doué, Bradley Barcola and Ousmane Dembélé. And 1 on the Moroccan side: Achraf Hakimi. Here are the Bleus’ ratings in the press.

Le Parisien:

Mbappé (7.5)

Doué (7) – Olise (5) – Dembélé (6.5)

 Rabiot (6) – Koné (7)

Digne (6.5) – Saliba (6.5) – Upamecano (7) – Koundé (6)

Maignan (6)

L’Equipe:

Mbappé (7)

Doué (6) – Olise (5) – Dembélé (6)

 Rabiot (6) – Koné (7)

Digne (6) – Saliba (6) – Upamecano (6) – Koundé (5)

Maignan (6)

These ratings seem fairly logical for a Bleus side that largely dominated Morocco. Even if Michael Olise’s 5 may seem a bit harsh, since he was essential in beating the press and creating space. But it is interesting to see this team remain very dangerous even when some attacking players are not at their best. The depth is impressive.

France keep moving forward with a certain ease that gives the impression they cannot be stopped. Still, there are 2 major performances left to deliver against very high-level opponents. It will be Spain or Belgium on Tuesday in the semi-final. The match between the two nations can be followed this Friday evening at 9 p.m.
