DIRECT. Tunisia-France: the Blues lacking benchmarks and powerless (0-0)

2022-11-30T16:22:18.023Z


The France team, already qualified for the round of 16, faces Tunisia this Wednesday at Al-Rayyan to secure first place


49' Good and bad for Camavinga

Very good return from Camavinga near the touchline in his lane, he intercepts a good ball.

But the makeshift side is a little greedy in stride offensively and loses possession.

47′ There is already fire at the blue house!

(0-0)

The Tunisians are attacking hard and in numbers on the French surface.

Tchouaméni throws himself to take the ball away from Khazri, who collapses... The referee does not whistle for a penalty while the Habs touch the ball well with their toes, but it was already very hot!

46' It's back to Al-Rayyan!

(0-0)

No change to note at the break, Deschamps described his team's first period as "bland" at the microphone of TF1.

We agree with him.

Half-time: the Blues below their level (0-0)

End of the purge for the Blues, well below their level in this very complicated first period (0-0).

The France team is reshuffled and it shows in the proposed score, only Kingsley Coman having been able to bring a little danger (25th).

The Carthage Eagles give everything to try to snatch the second qualifying place, in the hands of Australia which still holds Denmark in check in the other match of the group (0-0).

45′+2 

Fofana sounds the tricolor charge and advances to the entrance to the surface to take his chance.

His attempt is countered, and in the process, it is Khazri who tries from afar.

It's above.

42'

New big situation for Tunisia with a still unbalanced tricolor block.

Khazri finds himself thrown behind Camavinga's back, his low center is quickly cleared by Disasi with a tackle at the far post.

The Montpellier striker is reported in an offside position at the start.

40'

Coman and Kolo Muani try to provoke the Tunisian defense with the ball, but the opposing block is well in place behind.

The two attackers are the most restless in the French camp in this first period.

38'

Tunisia is on a big streak and corners the Blues in their camp.

The Eagles of Carthage take advantage of the tricolor feverishness and seem to have entered the heads of France.

35′ Khazri's firecracker!!

(0-0) 

Varane is guilty on this unsteady full axis raise, and offers a cartridge to Khazri.

The latter does not ask himself any questions and triggers an overpowered half-volley that Mandanda punches as best he can!

33'

If there is a little better in the production of the Blues for ten minutes, France is still well below its usual level.

In the other game of the group, we are still 0-0 between Australia and Denmark.

30'

Note the presence in the stands of Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, president of Paris Saint-Germain.

28'

Camavinga is tackled from behind by Kechrida, very clumsy.

The yellow card shown by the referee is deserved.

23′ What a pity for the Blues!

(0-0)

Camavinga steals a ball near the touchline and rushes into a function overrun to hit towards the axis.

While the game leaned towards Coman who had a boulevard on the right, the left side preferred to seek Kolo Muani towards the surface and was intercepted.

22' State

The two nations have met four times in history, for a record of 2 draws and 2 wins for France.

19'

Camavinga is struggling at his unusual left-back position.

Tunisian attacks pass regularly on his side.

17'

Ben Slimane puts the danger in the French area, quicker than Varane and who imposes himself physically.

The Tunisian striker fails to strike, hampered by the return of Konaté, the Blues recover the benefit of possession.

15'

The French are finally installed around the opposing surface, after a quarter of an hour of play. They obtain two consecutive corners, but no Habs come to put their heads.

13'

Khazri tried to infiltrate the French area from the right.

After a feint of strike, he tries to take Konaté in speed but rubs up against the impressive physique of the tricolor defender.

11'

This France team has been redesigned and it shows for the moment.

Didier Deschamps' men are sorely lacking in benchmarks on the ground, and have suffered considerably from the start.

Alert

8' THE TUNISIAN GOAL CANCELED!

(0-0) 

The Blues were not far from the correctional when Ghandri thought he had opened the scoring by magnificently taking over a free kick from Khazri with an acrobatic gesture!

As the Tunisians celebrated at the corner spot, the flag went up for an offside position! 

7' Stat Mandanda

5'

The Blues are under pressure in these first minutes, the Tunisians come to get them very high in their half of the field.

The Carthage Eagles get the first corner, which Varane clears with his foot in the tide of players.

Mandanda was careful and did not come out.

3'

Camavinga quickly gets into the swing of things in his left-back position, and is already defending harshly on Khazri.

He makes the mistake with his ugly sole, the referee is lenient in these first moments. 

1' Kick off in Al-Rayyan!

(0-0)

It is the Tunisians, in white, who kick off this last match of the group stage!

15:55

The hymns will ring out

The players entered the lawn of the Cité de l'éducation stadium, accompanied by the referee of the match, the New Zealander Matt Conger.

15:41

Composition of Tunisia

For its part, Tunisia finds France for the first time in official competition.

Regular at the highest African level but rarely winners, the Carthage Eagles hope to write the most beautiful page in their history by crossing the first round. 

15:37

Who will be 2nd in Group C?

Another major issue of this day for the Blues, probable first, the identity of the second in group C. A role that Poland (4 points), Argentina (3 points), Saudi Arabia (3 points) and the Mexico (1 point) can still all endorse.

Will we be entitled to a remake of 2018 with Lionel Messi's Argentina?

Response at the stroke of 10 p.m.

15:33

The arrival of the Blues in pictures

15:27

Last meeting for the Blues of the group stage

The Blues begin their last meeting of the group stage of the World Cup.

The Habs have already qualified for the round of 16 of the competition while their opponent still hopes to win his ticket.

Only a defeat against Tunisia coupled with a big victory for Australia against Denmark would cost the French team their first place.

15:21

Meanwhile, Denmark-Australia...

We will of course have an eye on the other group match, Denmark-Australia, which could decide the second qualifier for the group.

15:15

19 selections on average

It is therefore a very young French selection that will start against Tunisia, with in particular the first selection of the defender of Monaco Axel Disasi.

Among the least capped of this composition: Veretout will know his 2nd selection, Kolo Muani his 3rd, Camavinga his 5th.

15:10

Composition of the Blues

Here is the team composition proposed by Didier Deschamps:

Mandanda - Disasi, Varane (cap.), Konaté, Camavinga - Tchouaméni, Fofana, Veretout - Guendouzi - Coman, Kolo Muani.

15:07

good morning to everyone and welcome

It's time for the third game of the French team in this World Cup!
