The Blues face Turkey on Sunday in Bordeaux; a draw is enough to qualify

Quick Look

  • The French team, beaten 3-1 in Italy, remains second in its group, tied on points with the Italians.
  • The Blues face Turkey, last without a point, on Sunday in Bordeaux.
  • A draw is enough to qualify; a defeat can also be enough if Belgium does not dominate Italy in Brussels.

AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

The French team is second in its Nations League group with the same number of points as Italy, after a 3-1 defeat in Italy. The top two in the group qualify for the quarter-finals.

Font size

The French team made their task more complicated after their defeat in Italy (3-1), but they are not trembling. Second in their group with the same number of points as the Italians, the Blues still have their destiny in their hands in the Nations League. To reach the quarter-finals, the first two in the group are qualified. The situation is simple for Zinédine Zidane's men, who challenge Turkey, last in the group with zero points, on Sunday in Bordeaux.

In the event of a draw against the Turks, the Blues will be in the quarter-finals. A defeat may also be enough if Belgium does not dominate Italy in Brussels. On the other hand, if the Belgians win and France loses, elimination will be recorded, given the unfavorable goal average compared to Roberto Mancini's men.

France qualified for the quarter-finals if:

She beats Turkey

She draws against Turkey

She loses against Turkey but Belgium does not beat Italy

Open Questions

  • What is the exact score of the match between France and Italy?
  • What is the composition of the group and other results?
  • Who will make up the France team for the match against Turkey?

Antoine Dupont, Maxime Lucu and liar poker: the French XV is banking on the element of surprise against South Africa

Antoine Dupont will play flyhalf (number 10) against South Africa on November 13 as part of the Nations Championship, associated with Maxime Lucu at the hinge. This first in the selection can be explained by the defections of many professional players to the number 10 position. Dupont and Lucu will have to adapt with great freedom of exchanging positions, facing the reigning South African double world champions.
