Summary of the match against Denmark
During the last U20 match of the French team (1-0 victory), Ayman Aiki demonstrated all his talent by being a starter. Aligned in an attacking role, he shone with his activity and his intelligence of the game. Always on the move, Aiki was able to be decisive by delivering a decisive pass to Jérémie Jacquet for the only goal of the match, thus confirming his promising player status.
On the pitch, Aiki played 80 minutes of great intensity, increasing the number of calls in space and putting the opposing defense in difficulty with his speed and technique. His influence on the Bleuets' offensive play was notable, both through his individual qualities and his ability to connect with his teammates.
This solid performance once again underlines the potential of this young talent, who is making selections for the French team.
