A first dream match for France at the Euro.
Especially in the first period.
Who would have thought, in fact, that the Blue would lead 5-0 at the break against the Italians that everyone imagined as a serious outsider in this competition.
An outsider who will not have resisted one of the favorites.
Thanks to a hat-trick from Grace Geyoro (9th, 40th, 45th) and achievements by Marie-Antoinette Katoto (12th) and Cascarino (38th), Corinne Deacon's players made short work of the Transalpines, just capable of a beautiful reaction of pride to save the honor in the second act on a header from Piemonte (5-1, 76th).
Thursday July 14, the French will challenge Belgium (9:00 p.m.).
