France and Netherlands play out thrilling 0-0 draw in Euro 2024


 

Les Bleus had to bench Kylian Mbappé following his nose-injury against Austria.

France and Netherlands get one point each and stay on top of Group D after a lively, albeit goalless game – the first 0-0 of Euro 2024.

The two football titans didn’t hold back and produced one of the most entertaining starts of the tournament, with at least two great chances each in less than twenty minutes.

The Dutch increased the pressure in the second half but struggled to break through France’s tight defensive lines. Les Bleus had the better chances overall, and caused great danger later on in the game, first with a shot by Marcus Thuram and then with a Tchouaméni header narrowly over the crossbar.

The biggest chance however came at 65′ when Antoine Griezmann failed to score from close range thanks to a great left-leg save by Netherlands’ goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen.

But tension kept running high on both sides as VAR denied the Dutch the lead following an offside by Denzel Dumfries at 71′.
