Four days ago, France almost just walked on the field and won 3-0 against Luxembourg, so it is not too far-fetched for coach Didier Deschamps' team to dream of defeating Canada in the early morning of June 10.
However, the North American team under coach Jesse Marsch learned a lot of useful lessons after losing 4-0 to the Netherlands a few days ago in a friendly match in Rotterdam...
Ousmane Dembele dribbles past the Canadian defense
Coach Didier Deschamps fielded a strong lineup, except for Kylian. Mbappe sat on the bench, most of the familiar names of "Les Bleus" such as Antoine Griezmann, Olivier Giroud, Ousmane Dembele, Marcus Thuram, N'Golo Kante... played from the start.
However, throughout the first half, the reigning world runner-up team could not find a way into Canada's goal.
Kylian Mbappe only came off the bench
After the break, Kylian Mbappe, Kolo Muani, Kingsley Coman, and Bradley Barcola were brought onto the field by coach Deschamps to strengthen the attack.
The result, however, was still zero as the French team's powerful firepower could not pose a danger to Canadian goalkeeper Maxim Crepeau.
France disappointed with draw with Canada
The large number of French fans present at the Malmut-Atlantique stadium in Bordeaux could not hide their disappointment after cheering for their team for 90 minutes.
This result concludes the French team's preparation for Euro 2024. Eight days from now, the "Gaulois Rooster" will take the field in the European Championship against Austria in the opening match.
Also playing at home in Napoli to welcome Bosnia & Herzegovina, the Italian team had the expected victory, although the events on the field throughout the 90 minutes could not satisfy all the fans of the blue team.
"Squadra Azzurri" are hoping to win to complete the preparation for Euro 2024, after playing quite poorly in the 0-0 draw with Türkiye a few days ago.
Davide Frattesi scored the only goal for Italy
The pressure created by the Italian team was continuous in front of Bosnia & Herzegovina's goal right after the opening whistle.
However, it was not until the 38th minute that the home team converted the delicious opportunities created into the opening goal. The scorer for the Italian team was Davide Frattesi, striker of Inter Milan.
Italy unbeaten in friendly matches ahead of Euro 2024
That was also the only notable situation of the match because for the rest of the time, the Italian team attacked hopelessly against the Bosnia & Herzegovina defense.
