There is little chance that the score will be as impressive as that against Kazakhstan (8-0) on Saturday, but we are entitled to expect the same quality of play. The French team is traveling to Helsinki on Tuesday for face Finland to complete the World Cup qualifying matches in Qatar. The Blues go there with a major advantage: they have already won their ticket for the World Cup (November 21 – December 18, 2022) on Saturday by crushing the Kazakhs.
The players of Didier Deschamps delivered an exciting performance (quadrupled from Mbappé, doubled from Benzema, one goal each for Griezmann and Rabiot) and it is Tuesday to confirm that the flame that animates the Tricolores will not be extinguished in the freezing cold from Finland. Reinvigorated by the coronation in the League of Nations in October, the Blues display a sparkling form but which is not yet sufficient to forget the elimination of the Euro from the knockout stages.
The coach of the France team could be tempted to turn his team and give playing time to the players summoned but who have not or little entered the game. But beware of the Finns, current second in group D and who will be able to play dams in March if they stay there. In November 2020, they surprised the Blues in a friendly match by beating them (2-0).
