This Thursday, November 14, the Blues challenge Israel as part of the fifth day of the League of Nations. A single point would allow them to qualify for the final phase of the competition.
We would almost forget it given the context that surrounds it, but a match with a sporting issue will take place this Thursday, November 14, at the Stade de France (8:45 p.m.). Facing Israel, the France team has the possibility of securing its place for the quarter-finals of the League of Nations, which will take place in March 2025.

Indeed, the first two in each group qualify for the final phase. Currently, the Blues are in second position with nine points, five lengths ahead of Belgium. The equation is therefore intended to be simple. A draw would allow Didier Deschamps' men to secure their ticket for the rest of the competition.

But, facing a modest opponent largely beaten in the first leg (1-4), the stakes will go beyond the simple result. The content will be particularly scrutinized. After the debacle against Italy (1-3), France remains on three consecutive victories, without having really convinced. Kylian Mbappé absent, N'Golo Kanté will wear the captain's armband.
France-Israel, 5th day of the League of Nations on Thursday November 14, kick-off 8:45 p.m. A meeting to follow live on TF1 and with live commentary on ladepeche.fr.
