- coffeebeqn 4y agoFinally not having Benzema (and Pogba) caught up to them. Giroud was completely useless when they don’t control the game
- NickC25 4y agoI thought it was more not having Kante than Pogba or Benzema. Argentina faced little to no pressure in the midfield and the only times France could really muster an attack it came through the wing-backs (namely Hernandez and then Camavinga) or even their centerhalves (Upamecano) were pushing forward and playing line-breaking passes. France surrendered the midfield from the get-go. That midfield was key to their counter-attacking game in 2018.
