France showcased all their potential in their opening game even though they started 1-0 down in the scoreboard. They rapidly responded with an inspired Kylian Mbappé and a very efficient Olivier Giroud to finish 4-1 over Australia. Now they will be looking forward to sealing their place in the next round.

Denmark was instead one of the squads that disappointed in their opener. Although they didn’t lose vs Tunisia, the Danish barely got a 0-0 tie. If they want to win the group, they must get a victory here, but any point they could get would be valuable towards a qualification. They should get there with some confidence given how their games against the French went in the UEFA Nations League.
