Euro 2021: Griezmann and Benzema absent from training

2021-06-11T08:19:44.838Z


The two forwards are suffering from bruises that arose from shocks during the match against Bulgaria on Tuesday. But their presence


Karim Benzema and Antoine Griezmann did not participate in the training of the Blues, this Thursday at the end of the day at Clairefontaine.

Five days before the entry into the running of the French team in this Euro, against Germany, the Madrilenian continues to treat his crutch in the thigh received against Bulgaria (3-0).

He could resume racing by the end of the week and should be available to face the Mannschaft.

The Barcelonan suffers from a contusion to his left calf after a blow also received during the last match.

He remained in care and did not set foot on the Pibarot field.

As for Benzema, his case does not inspire concern in anticipation of the first match of the Blues next Tuesday in Munich.

Mbappé and Giroud in the same team in training

After a warm-up, followed by a few races, the French players opposed ten to ten in a quarter of the field. A small match in which Lucas Hernandez, Adrien Rabiot and Paul Pogba did not participate. The first, hit in the knee against Wales, returned straight to the locker room after the stretches, while the two midfielders remained on the edge of the mini-pitch, although Pogba subsequently made more races with the physical trainer Cyril Moine.

The absence of Rabiot, injured in the ankle and forfeit against the Bulgarians, could favor Tolisso against Germany. The Munich player played as a starter during the two friendlies of the Blues. Before this small match, Didier Deschamps had asked Ousmane Dembélé and Kylian Mbappé to make the teams. And the Parisian last chose Olivier Giroud in his training, giving him the orange chasuble. An image of reconciliation for the many media present after the emerging controversy between the two players. Even if Mbappé did not wear a clear smile throughout this session of about an hour.
