What to also remember
The Blues find color.
It's like a breath of fresh air that the France team offered itself and offered to its supporters yesterday. Didier Deschamps' men beat Finland in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers thanks to a brace from Antoine Griezmann. Repositioned in the axis, the Frenchman was sparkling. His relationship with Karim Benzema, back in his Lyon fold, was perfect. As obvious. The Blues are now in an ideal position to get their ticket to Qatar.
Thunderstorm warning.
Météo France has placed some 32 departments on orange vigilance due to thunderstorms which should affect a wide north / south band in the center of the country.
The first lightnings should hit the country in the early afternoon and these bad weather will sometimes be accompanied by hail and significant accumulations of rain.
The thunderstorms should shift overnight towards the English Channel before losing their virulence Thursday morning.

New shootings in Marseille.
Barely a few days after the presidential visit, the Phocaean City once again became the scene of repeated crimes.
Two shootings broke out last night.
The toll is heavy, once again: two dead and one injured.
The two events, which occurred in the 1st and 13th arrondissements, are distinct.
One of them seems to be linked to the drug trafficking that plagues the city.
The unexpected info
To sell bedding, they put worms in the mattresses. This is the trick found by two criminals aged 28 and 51, who were rampant in the Hauts-de-Seine. The fifty-year-old and his son-in-law are suspected of having, since last May, abused about thirty elderly people in the Paris region by making them believe that their mattresses were infested with worms. Taking advantage of the distress of their victims, they offered to immediately replace their bedding for an astronomical sum. New bedding which in addition turned out to be of very poor quality. An octogenarian even had a bag filled with 38,000 euros in cash stolen. The two men were arrested and placed in police custody in the premises of the security in Nanterre.
