France’s national team performed poorly in League A and lost the chance to leave group 1 earlier in the schedule.

The French national team will not be competing for the League of Nations trophy this season. This happened after the reigning world champions failed to win for the fourth consecutive group match. Moreover, Deschamps ’wards lost on their own field to the Croatian national team.

For the Balkan team, this victory is the first in history against the “tricolors” and a kind of revenge for the 2018 World Cup final, where the Croats lost to the French.

Now the French team is in last place in group 1, with only two points on the asset, which was drawn with both Croats and Austria, and also lost to the Danish team.

Remember that the French are the current owners of the trophy. In the final of the last draw, they defeated the Spanish national team.
