Didier Deschamps’ side comfortably beat Senegal (3-1) before easily beating Iraq (3-0) before beating Norway (4-1) to confirm they are on a serious mission to win the title for the second time since Russia 2018.
Journalist John Bennett said in a statement to the British BBC. “Just looking at their attack, with Kylian Mbappe, Michael Olissi and Ousmane Dembele, and what they can do when they’re at their best, I think they’ll be very difficult to stop…
5 out of 7 British journalists agreed that the French team performed best during the group stage. Journalist Liz Conway said: “It seems difficult to stop France. They have the best attacking trio in the tournament and their bench depth allows them to rotate their squad.”

In Germany, France’s potential rival in the Round of 16, journalist Antonia Maiwald wrote in Bild newspaper. “Watch out, Nagelsmann, watch out, Germany. These French players should be afraid of the team, especially the best player in the world, Ousmane Dembele, who gives a clear warning to Nagelsmann and his team-mates.”
As for Sweden, France’s next opponent, legend Zlatan Ibrahimovic seems to have resigned himself to the fact that the Fox Sports commentator noted:
The Argentine “ESPN” network praised the perfect understanding of the French team, saying: “This team shows perfect understanding, knows how to coordinate their attacks in the attacking third and is a strong team in front of goal when given the opportunity.”
Liam Tarm, journalist of The Athletic newspaper, added: “France are consistent and dynamic on the counter and with the speed of their front four they will always be dangerous on the counter. Deschamps’ dream of playing in three consecutive World Finals is getting closer to reality with each game.”
Mexico’s Record has named France as “the most popular title contenders” and the Roosters are set to confirm their position against Sweden in the last-32 tie next Tuesday in the first step towards Deschamps’ dream of reaching a third straight final.
