As expected, if even before the kick-off of the semi-final against Spain the critics in France were not averse to taking strong shots at Deschamps’ team, who had won up to that point without ever convincing, after the exit against Red French portals attack KylianMbappe and his companions. Between those who indulge in puns linked to the characteristic color of their opponents (“Red Eyes” headlines L’Equipe) and those like Le Figaro who list the evening’s failures, with the Real Madrid ace being “rewarded” with a nice 2 in the report card.
Here are the openings of the main French portals after the semi-final loss against Spain.
THE TEAM – The Red Eyes
LE PARISIEN – Les Bleus fall to their knees and say goodbye to the euro
LE FIGARO – Spain-France, Mbappé fails again, Dembele too, Rabiot very light”
