France is expected to face many difficulties when facing Austria in the opening match of EURO 2024. Despite entering the match with great confidence, coach Didier Deschamps’ team could not score a goal in the early stages of the match.

On the other side of the front line, the Austrian team proactively played counter-attack defense, which was effective by not allowing the opponent to create too many scoring opportunities. However, the turning point came from an individual tackle on the right wing by Mbappe in the 38th minute.

The player born in 1998 decided to break through before sending the ball inside. The two Austrian players did not understand each other and the ball hit Wober’s head and went into the net. This was also the only goal of this match, although in the second half, the French team also created many scoring opportunities, the most notable of which was Mbappe’s unbelievable miss when facing goalkeeper Patrick Pentz.

Mbappe continued to be the main character of the match when he suffered a serious injury to his face after a very strong collision with an Austrian player. The new Real Madrid player was immediately taken off the field and left open the possibility of playing in the next matches.

Even though they won with a minimum score, the performance of coach Didier Deschamps and his team could not satisfy the fans. France will face the Netherlands in the next match on June 22 while Austria will face Poland.
