This is France’s final friendly match before Euro 2024.

France will take on Canada in their second friendly match at Stade de Bordeaux. Didier Deschamps’ men ran out convincing 3-0 victors over Luxembourg in their first fixture of the month, while their upcoming visitors were crushed 4-0 by the Netherlands on Thursday evening.

France have reached three of the last four major tournament finals. They are looking for redemption at these Euros after losing out in the quarter-finals to Switzerland three years ago, before suffering a penalty shootout loss to Argentina at the last World Cup. Les Bleus have world-class players in every position and they have a good chance of winning this upcoming Euro 2024 in Germany.

Canada will be looking to give the home team a tough challenge as in their first international friendly they got hammered by the Dutch. In a few days, the Canadian team are going to compete at the Copa America, where they are placed in Group A along with Argentina, Chile and Peru.

This friendly will surely test their capabilities to compete against top-quality opponents. The away team will have to give their best to even get a draw here.

Players to Watch

Kylian Mbappe (France)

Kylian Mbappé is one of the fastest players on the football field. His explosive speed and ability to accelerate quickly make him a real headache for opposition defences. His ability to dribble past defences and change direction in an instant makes it extremely difficult to mark him.

The France national team forward can score from distance, as he has demonstrated on innumerable occasions. His positive attitude and ability to keep calm under pressure make him a model to follow for his teammates.

Ismael Kone (Canada)

Ismael Kone has great off-the-ball movement and close control which makes him a danger in and around the edge of the penalty box. He is very good at receiving the ball in dangerous areas and then either creating a chance for somebody else or having a shot himself.

Kone is very quick on the turn and good at using his body to shield the ball. Once he gets up to speed he is very hard to stop and moves very swiftly with his body movements. He’s physically strong and capable of making a lot of trouble for the opposition team.
