Holders against the Croats (1-1), Presnel Kimpembe, Adrien Rabiot, Christopher Nkunku and Moussa Diaby remained in the room.
On the lawn of the Hadjuk Split training ground, the other holders of the day before (Maignan, Digne, Saliba, Pavard, Guendouzi, Tchouaméni, Ben Yedder) did some jogging and stretching before Mike Maignan did exercises with Franck Raviot, the team's goalkeeping coach.
