Giroud and the Blues have a feast against Ukraine

Olivier Giroud has passed Platini against Ukraine.

-

At the Stade de France,

Ukraine did their best, of course, with half a team in quarantine and the other not wanting to be there, but still.

It was a while since we had not taken a similar foot with the Blues, who took a good dose of confidence before Portugal Sunday by succeeding in an offensive festival (7-1).

The diamond, more than a one shot?

It's time to throw flowers, since Didier Deschamps had been asked why he was not trying the diamond rather than the villainous 3-5-2, with all the talented circles he had at his disposal.

The coach replied that he would try one day, knowing that this day would come the next day, the rascal.

It was without Kanté and Pogba, but with Aouar and Camavinga, who celebrated their first tenure together.

Aligned in ten, the Lyonnais was the least comfortable, even if he was involved in Giroud's second goal.

The whole thing was pleasant, however, and the laterals a lot more convincing than last month.

But there have been air pockets behind, a little too much, and it takes an opponent a little less helpless to know if the diamond can become a lasting solution in the mind of DD.

Knowing him, we are skeptical.

Olivier Giroud, more than Platoche

What to say about the IWRM other than to bow down very low and to surrender without making manners on the conditions.

Whether he plays two with Martial or Mbappé, whether he plays alone at the peak, that he does not play in a club, the center-forward of the Blues bumps into it.

It crashes over and over again.

Captain for his hundredth selection, a figure already huge in itself, the center forward of the Blues wanted to equal Platini "as quickly as possible".

And the guy didn't hang around.

A superb shot enveloped from the left (25th), and a plunging head of hangman (33rd), that was already the end of Platoche, 42 goals to 41. Not very Christian for the Ukrainians, but the man has his goals and he sticks to it.

The next one, apart from winning the Euro of course?

Go get the legendary Titi Henry and his 51 goals for the France team.

It's still far away ?

Beware.

GOOD FOR BLUES 🇫🇷!

And here it is the 41st goal in @equipedefrance for Olivier Giroud, who equals the total of Michel Platini #FRAUKR pic.twitter.com/SOH4rFSlZf

Camavinga, more than a replacement?

You shouldn't talk to him about age either.

Camavinga has not yet discovered the Champions League that he already finds the means to put us in doubt.

Shouldn't we already, like Mbappé in his time, that of the under 20s, reserve him a warm place in the eleven tricolor?

In a pattern that he does not practice in Rennes, the midfielder-scorer-leader still bluffed the meager assistance of the Stade de France on the hour that DD granted him, with the added bonus of a sublime goal, a kind of controlled bicycle within six meters to open the scoring, which allows him to dust off an old record like France Pompidolienne.

Scorer at 17 years and 10 months, he does much better than a certain Georges Lech, in 1963. The French team is an endless blessing.
