Olise n Cherki = 2 Zidane

Mafia million money 💰💲 players mafia mafia mafia mafia mafia mafia mafia mafia mafia mafia
Two African nations going head to head
Senegal is the best team in Africa
what is the name of the referee…the worst referee
Im not gonna lie Senegal looks good playing ❤
Wasit terburuk kali ini siapa namanya
Is Senegal 🇸🇳 gonna score first 😢 Mp doesn't look his energetic self 😢😢😢😢 come on France please 🙏🏻 ❤
France will win it's gonna be a 2-1
This game will be the game to watch. Best game in the group stage. Senegal is not easy. They are just as technical as France. France will have their hands full. Senegal is dangerous. Ask Morocco.
Africa vs Africa premium
This match is an AFRICAN DERBY! It’s basically an UNITED AFRICAN team playing against a genuinely African Senegalese team!
France have been an AFRICAN team for over TWENTY YEARS. At least we can that AFRICA has already won FIFA WORLD CUP!
By the way did you know that Lamine Yamal is 100% AFRICAN, his father is Moroccan and mother from Equatorial Guinea.
Also Kylian Mbappe is 100% AFRICAN, his father is from Cameroon and mother from Algeria.
Even Ousmane Dembele is 100% AFRICAN, his father is from Mali, and mother from Mauritania/Senegal.
I could select many more from the “French” national team and it would be the EXACT SAME, AFRICAN!!!!!!!
You can actually say that the MAJORITY of the WORLD’S very best players are AFRICAN!!!!!!!!
I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW what GENUINE GENERATIONAL FRENCH PEOPLE LIKE MICHEL PLATINI THINK about this definitely AFRICAN national team!
Africa v Africa
Good game. The 2 best African teams.
Senegal vs Senegal
Galácticos national league…let’s see if they can brake the galácticos curse
Brazil vs Morocco is the biggest match because the game is played between the 6th and 7th ranking team of the FIFA World Ranking of the national team.
Allez les Bleus ! 🇫🇷🇪🇺
SENEGAL all the Way
Conrad is a disgrace!
Your bias is so obvious. Mbappe is head above the rest, stfu or and five due props to the best player in the world
Allez les bleus. Je veux que la France prenne une troisième étoile 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Brazil 1970, France 2000, Spain 2010, Germany 1974, were better teams
I’m I only person who thinks it wrong Olise who English born and raised and doesn’t even speak French and never lived there plays for France, when they already have a stacked squad? It is football equivalent of Joel Embid playing for the US basketball team.
Perhaps France should look to play with a 3-man Midfield or a 5-man Defensive Wall with high attacking WingBacks, in order to provide a base of security from which their attacking players can have the freedom to do as they please, how ever they wish too- and still thrive. Having multiple attacking options is not a problem. Due to the heat and summer temperatures this World Cup will also be decided by the clever and refreshing substitutes a manager can bring on to shift the tempo and energy to a game. Subs play an important role more so than ever before.
Draw
France(1) Senegal(2).
France- 19 Senegal -0
To all the people saying France is Senegal's A team. The only player with somewhat of a remote connection to Senegal on the french team is Dembélé. And even then you'd have to look past the Malian roots.
France 3-1 Sénégal
Senegal are the reigning AFCON champions and are very strong but I struggle to see how anyone can beat this French team, unless their Bayern, PSG & Arsenal contingent are still suffering from UCL fatigue.
Piling ud stars dont make a team. Go Senegal vamos
J'ai vu un premier thumbnail avec Mobutu c'était claqué. Avec Olise je respire.
I hope our Bleus will win but Senegal is a very tough team, they won the CAN this year.
Allez Les Bleus 💙 🤍❤️
Allez les Bleus , Go France 🇫🇷 ⚽️ 🐓 💙 💙 💙
France have a problem. They have great attackers but I reckon they won't play the best ones. They'll probably still go far as they should, but where for example, Olise goes missing in a semifinal, the guy who didn't go missing, Doue, may be on the bench. Where Mbappe can rack up numbers, the guy who helps the team win, Dembele, may not be in the right position. All the ingredients but it depends on the mixture. We saw this against Ivory Coast
France 1-3 Senegal
