The three Blues who impressed during the international break 💪 | OneFootball

Very promising for the World Cup!

France won both of its international matches during this break, against Ukraine (2-0) and Iceland (2-1). Two challenging matches, during which several players stood out.

We've selected three players who made an impact in the Blue jersey!

Michael Olise

He had a tough evening against Iceland on Tuesday, with a completely missed pass that led to the opponent's opening goal. But he didn't crumble, and having shone so brightly against Ukraine, Olise seems to emerge from this break with a strengthened status.

Brilliant as a playmaker, the Bayern Munich attacking midfielder confirmed that with him, the four-offensive-player solution seems viable. A scorer and precise in his choices, he continued to establish himself as a member of the eleven, and although he is quite new to the team, he already seems to be becoming one of its key players.

Kylian Mbappé

Did he need to make an impact? Not really, Kylian Mbappé remains one of the best players in the world and the captain of the Blues, almost unmovable from Deschamps' eleven.

But in these two matches, the Real striker, scoring each time, showed that he had regained even more sharpness at the start of this season and acted as a leader. A good sign for the rest of the season, with the World Cup in sight.

Manu Koné

Probably the player who shone the most in these two matches, and the most consistent. He even confirmed himself that he had "gained consistency in performances." He proved it in these two matches with the Blues.

An outstanding ball retriever, as powerful as he is penetrating in midfield, he showcased his entire range and was a standout performer. Good luck taking him out of the eleven now.
