The blue always present in the big meetings! It was the expected fight. And France answered perfectly. Les Bleus defeated Germany yesterday evening in Munich (1-0) thanks to a goal of Mats Hummels against his camp. The Tricolores have shown from their entry in the tournament a technical mastery and a defensive solidity very encouraging for the rest of the competition.
And in the end, it is the Blues who win. Jostled, even sometimes abused by Germany, the French team bent but did not crack in Munich, against the 2014 world champions, and entered in the best way in this Euro, snatching a short but precious victory (1-0). The whole on an own goal of Mats Hummels, their tormentor of 2014.
Thanks to this success, France is now level with Portugal, winner of Hungary (3-0) at the end of the first day in Group F.
