Find the main statistics after the Blues' 3-1 victory in Milan against Italy at the end of the group stage of the Nations League.
1
Didier Deschamps still has only one setback, last September at the Parc des Princes, against Italy, after the Blues' 3-1 success in Milan at the end of the group stage of the League of Nations. As a player, he is unbeaten in four games against the Nazionale, including the Euro 2000 final, and he now has four wins and one defeat against Italy as coach.

With Lucas Digne's free kick, diverted into his own net by Guglielmo Vicario, and Adrien Rabiot's two headers from corners from the Aston Villa left-back, the Blues scored three goals from set pieces on Sunday evening at San Siro for the first time since March 1991, against Albania (5-0). It was in qualifying for Euro 1992, and Franck Sauzée had scored two goals from a free kick, and Jean-Pierre Papin had scored from a penalty.

The Blues like to travel to Italy. They signed, on Sunday evening in Milan, their third consecutive victory in the boot after those, in a friendly, in November 2012 in Parma (2-1), then in September 2016 in Bari (3-1).
6
Ibrahima Konaté became the sixth captain of the French team for the year 2024 at San Siro on Sunday, in the absence of Kylian Mbappé, who was replaced by his Madrid teammate Aurélien Tchouaméni last month then by N'Golo Kanté last Thursday against Israel.
50
Adrien Rabiot and Lucas Digne celebrated their 50th selection for the French team on Sunday evening in Milan. If the Marseille midfielder, author of a double, now has six goals for the Blues, the Villa left-back is still looking for his first international goal, even if he thought he opened his account on his sumptuous free kick.
