Four games, three goals scored and only two points on the account – that is the meager yield of the French national team in the current edition of the Nations League. And the appearance on Monday evening in the Stade de France once morest Croatia also fits into this picture. Despite the chances, the Équipe Tricolore lost 0:1 at home. The French keep the red lantern in Group 1.
Captain Luka Modric scored the decisive goal for Croatia in the 5th minute with a foul penalty. In the second leg, the Croatians managed to get revenge for the lost 2018 World Cup final. The first leg in the Nations League a week ago had ended 1-1.
Denmark strong leader of group 1
For France, only Austria is within striking distance of the group. Coach Ralf Rangnick’s team (with Heinz Lindner in goal) lost 2-0 away to Denmark. Austria is still two points ahead of France in the table. On September 22nd, the two nations will have what will probably be the decisive direct duel in Paris. There is a risk of relegation to League B.
More regarding the Nations League
Denmark remain leaders in Group 1 with three wins and just one loss. The strong performance of the Danes resulted in a particularly emotional substitution in the 76th minute. It’s exactly one year and one day since team captain Christian Eriksen – also in Copenhagen – suffered a cardiac arrest on the field during the European Championship preliminary round match once morest Finland and had to be resuscitated. Eriksen comes on as a substitute once morest Austria for the closing stages. The 30-year-old got a standing ovation. (cat)
