League of Nations: relive the promising victory of the Blues against Belgium
France Télévisions - Sports Editorial
Three days after their short success in Türkiye (1-0), the Blues traveled to Brussels on Monday and scored a second success.
What you need to know
The first page of the Zinédine Zidane era has been written. Facing Turkey (1-0), the legend of French football began with a success for his debut as coach of the Blues, which had not happened since Aimé Jacquet in 1994. Now launched, he guided the French team to a new victory, Monday September 28, against Belgium in Brussels (1-0), on the occasion of the second day of the League of Nations.
• Désiré Doué takes the light. In the absence of Kylian Mbappé, injured and returned to Madrid, and while Michael Olise and Ousmane Dembélé had been left on the bench at kick-off, Désiré Doué took the keys to the truck. And successfully. In the oven and in the mill, the Parisian was the most prominent of the Tricolores against the Red Devils.
• Turnover at all levels. As announced by the coach, there was a change in the starting lineup, with no less than 9 different starters for the match in Türkiye. Among them, Lucas da Cunha, Jérémy Jacquet and Andy Diouf honored their first selection.
• Belgium has not beaten France in an official match for 45 years. The Blues now have eight wins in a row against this opponent (excluding friendly matches). We have to go back to September 9, 1981 to find the trace of a Belgian success, in qualifying for the World Cup (2-0).

It's true that this unique team, made up of three newcomers and just one indisputable starter (Mike Maignan), showed a lot of character and personality with the ball.

#FOOT Estéban Lepaul on TF1: "We had a coherent first half, then we corrected a few things. Everyone supports everyone and that's how we will move forward. I felt good. There are some benchmarks to take with people with whom we don't play the rest of the year. The main thing is that we won tonight."

#FOOT Lucas da Cunha on TF1: "We had a great match. We conceded chances but, with the match we played, we deserved to win. The coach told me to do what I do at club, to let go. I had a lot of fun on the pitch. I'm very happy with my first here. A few years ago, I was in the second division and I'm here. It shows that when you work, you end up being rewarded."

#FOOT Two victories to start. We haven't seen that for a coach of the France team since Aimé Jacquet in 1994. Doing it without conceding a single goal is an accomplishment only established by Henri Michel (1984) and Henri Guérin (1964) before him.

#FOOT Mika Godts takes one last shiver into the tricolor area, but the referee does not indicate the penalty point (90th + 3).

Zidane celebrated the goal furiously along the sidelines. In his momentum, the former number 10 of the Blues fired a powerful shot into a ball.

#FOOT Deliverance finally came. Coming off the bench paid off for Michael Olise who had not scored with the Blues since his hat-trick against Northern Ireland before flying off to the American World Cup. He scored his 8th goal in 27 caps.

#FOOT BUUUUT FOR THE FRANCE TEAM! Michael Olise breaks through on the right side, covers more than 30 meters and concludes with a very well placed curling shot on the ground, from the entrance to the penalty area (88th - 1-0).
