Calendar of FC Barcelona

To chambers! The selection of France won 1-0 to Belgium in a commitment in which 'Them Bleus' suffered for vulnerar the defence of the Belgian picture, that posed a proposal of game quite defensive. However, the 'wall' of the 'Red Devils' would go to rack and ruin with an action where there was a big fortune for the Frenchmen, since to the 85', after a finish of Randal Kolo Muani that diverted in Jan Vertonghen and coló inside the goal of Casteels, went that the French could break the 'tables' in the 'electronic'.

The first-half did not enjoy of a lot of emotions

They started the actions in Düsseldorf and from the start saw to two quite cautious squares, waiting for seeing what proposed the rival to react. However, in this speculative football between both selections, the one who began to want to propose something distinct in the game was the combined French. Although paradoxically, the more resembled an occasion of goal arrived to the 24', courtesy of the Belgian. After a sending to the area of Kevin Of Bruyne, Mike Maignan complicated when trying clear this stroke to the area.

From this, 'Them Bleus' himself that began to have a bit more than weight in the formality of the duel. To the point that to the 34', had the first occasion of real goal of the commitment. Marcus Thuram took advantage of a centre to the area from the right side, courtesy of the Barcelona right side Jules Koundé, and after hitting the balloon with a powerful head butt, this left very near of the goal defended by Koen Casteels.

Nevertheless, the first-half would close with very few emotions more. The last of them was a shot of Aurélien Tchouaméni that left diverted, marking like this the closing of some first 45 minutes almost soporíferos between two squares that respected in demasía and seem to have stipulated like plan of game give him the leadership on the contrary.

'Them Bleus' stepped the accelerator in the second time

All these rushed forward French took place while Belgium held deep down and entrusted to treat to hurt by means of contragolpes, formula that almost works them to the 61' when, of not being by a swept saviour of Theo Hernández in the area, in which the side of the AC Milan attained to steal the spherical to Yannick Ferreira Carrasco, the one who was in position of goal and with total leeway, could have meant the 0-1 in favour of the ones of Domenico Tedesco.

In this point, the duel went to take something more than flight, since the occasions of goal began to appear in great quantity. First, France would try to change the course of the party with both occasions of Antoine Griezmann and Aurélien Tchouaméni, which would be answered in big form by the Belgian offensive. Romelu Lukaku Was very near to mark to the minute 70, with a zurdazo powerful and crusader that put to proof the resistance of Mike Maignan, the one who attained to repel the shot of form soberbia. No only this, the '16' of 'Them Bleus', to the 83' also went to have a very good cut across to keep his goal in zero, stealing him a new target to Kevin Of Bruyne.

Randal Kolo Muani, the 'hero' of the French victory
