HT: Prancis 0 - 0 Denmark
The first round of matches was over, the game was quite attractive and attacking each other, statistically France was still quite dominant until the first half ended. Denmark is still able to keep up and is able to play openly under the pressure that France is trying to build. Christian Eriksen tried to build several attacks, but none of the worked opportunities yet, while France relied on the left and right wings in carrying out attacks on Denmark.
Ousmane Dembele, Antoine Griezmann and Kylian Mbappe had quite a hard time being guarded by the Danish defenders, while Olivier Giroud hasn't had the right moment, so there haven't been any chances to score.
I enjoyed the entire match. Got to see great gameplay from both teams. Denmark lost but their performance was excellent we have to admit that. Several good attacks were made by the Danish players but they still lost the match in the end.
Young Mbappe's performance has caught everyone's attention today. He was the most important player of the day. Mbappe scored both of France's goals. Mbappe also made a total of 6 shots, four of which were on target.
If Benzema was not injured, France's attack would have been stronger.
I expected a better performance from an experienced player like Giroud. Giroud needs to shine in the upcoming matches.
Yes, the development of that game is really a very good thing, I can't deny that I don't like Mbappé very much, but today he played very well, every time he catches the ball the whole perspective of the French team, he really gives another twist to the game, the Danes play very well and are very strong players, they are quite fast, they take hits and get up at once, they are players who really have a unique resistance, what happens is that they played one of the strongest teams in the world , it is expected that the match between Spain and Germany will be of another level because Germany needs to win in any way, this promises, I think that this World Cup has done very well, and the surprise teams have not done well, in the case of Saudi Arabia the Luck did not accompany them and I fell 2-0 against Poland, but we must see how well Lewandowski played.
Kylian Mbappe dazzles as France become first to progress at World Cup - 5 talking pointsThe mercurial Kylian Mbappe was at the heart of everything positive for the French going forward, scoring the opening goal of the game after a neat link-up with Theo Hernandez.
His right-footed effort took a deflection off of Andreas Christensen on the way in, leaving Kasper Schmeichel with very little chance before Mbappe was off, wheeling away in celebration after his second goal of the tournament.
