Good ratings for a fairly convincing team performance against Ukraine, with a few individuals standing out. It’s nice to see these Bleus playing such football—we’d like to get used to it. Not everything was perfect, but we saw creativity as a team. All of it driven in play by Olise and Tchouaméni, who were outstanding. Let’s hope it continues.

Barcola was also impressive, confirming his rise in form in recent matches. Unfortunately, Doué had to come off at halftime after taking a blow to the calf, and was then replaced by a Dembélé who was injured again afterwards.
