Euro 2024
1984, 2000 and… 2024? While they have been caught like 68 million French people in the whirlwind of anxiety-provoking political news which is shaking France, the Blues, isolated across the Rhine, will make their entry into the Euro. In Düsseldorf, the French team, crowned with its status as big favorite, launches its tournament against Austria, Monday June 17 (at 9 p.m., live on TF1, TF1+ and live commentary on TF1info), with the ambition to lift the Henri-Delaunay trophy for the third time in its history.
Great debuts which will be watched by football Europe, in particular its competitors for final victory, Germany, the host country, Spain, Italy and even England, who have all passed their first test hands down. “I can’t wait for it to start. I of course want to leave my mark on the pitch during the Euro. We are coming to Germany to make history”proclaimed loudly and clearly the French captain Kylian Mbappé, last week, in an interview with the German daily Sports Bild. A stated objective which forces the Blues to miss this first step.

This entry into the running against the Burschen will not necessarily be fun against the Burschen. Ambitious and dangerous, the selection coached by Ralf Rangnick looks like a trap team for Didier Deschamps’ men, who knows that to go far in this Euro they will have to win. That’s good: since he has been coach, his France team has always won its first match in major tournaments. Keep it going.
