The French team begins this Tuesday (8:00 p.m. Spanish peninsular time) against Australia the defense of the world title achieved in the last edition, with the notable absence of striker Karim Benzema, brand new Ballon d'Or, but with a squad that has plenty of talent and potential, and that he will face an oceanic team that will take refuge in his direct and pragmatic style to begin building the champion's curse.
Didier Deschamps' men reach their debut in Qatar with a squad full of stars.
Without the forward of the Real Madrid team, the trident that he would form with Kylian Mbappé and Antoine Griezmann is weakened, but the French coach has plenty of pieces to rebuild a guaranteed team.

There are no big names, but in the qualifying phase he showed himself to be a generous block in the effort and electric in the transitions.

France-Australia
Hello everyone!
A pleasure to be with you to tell you about the match between France, the current champion led by Deschamps, and Australia at the Al Janoub Stadium, located in Al Wakrah.
Without Benzema up front, Kanté or Pogba in the middle (in addition to Kimpembe and Nkunku), France loses important pieces but has plenty of football to be a clear contender for the scepter.
In front will be the
Aussie
team, of direct and physical football.
Let's go there!
