The French team spent this Sunday cLike a steamroller over Italy and becomes one of the strongest candidates to become the European champion with a resounding victory, a declaration of intent, although the bellows dropped a lot in the second half.
The French team concluded its debut in the competition with a convincing and deserved ‘little hand’ that he left already tied up after the first 45 minutess, an excellent first part, all aggressiveness, of the players of Corinne Diacre. Although in the second half Italy was better, they showed claw and deserved to sign more than one goal, as they stood up and competed against a France that let go, accommodated after the initial win.
France had no rival and left the duel sentenced in the first half, dedicating themselves in the second to temporizing and letting the minutes go by against an Italy that never knew how to hurt the finery, much superior, especially in the first 45 minutes.
In minute 4 the French goalkeeper disrupted a big poison shot from Bonansea. The first and the last, a mirage, because from the 8th minute the finery scored the sixth and destroyed Italy.
in the 8′ Geyoro signed the first of the three goals who scored this Sunday, after taking advantage of a dead ball in the Italian area. four minutes later, Katoto made it 2-0 after a play badly defended by the trasalpinas. The third was chewed in the environment. At the edge of the first quarter, Katoto headed the post. The French monologue was overwhelming and the rain of goals followed. In the 38′ Cascarino signed a great goal from the front, a brutal howitzer, playing at will.
Before the break, two more goals fell for the French, pulverizing the soft defensive framework of a completely outmatched Italy.
in the 40′ Geyoro made the fourth, your second in your private account. On the counter, after outsmarting the start of the Italian goal, he shot at will to make the fourth. The fifth was still missing, the one with the ‘little hand’ before going to the shower. Geyoro, a nightmare, ‘killed’ from the front after a new robbery.
Little story in the second part but Italy recovered and stood up, competing in luxury. France lowered many benefits, accommodated with 5-0 and Italy played its best minutes, triangulating with criteria and light above. In minute 64, the referee, after reviewing the VAR, changed a red card that he took from the start to expel Gama for a tough tackle to Geyoro. But he exchanged it for a yellow one. And this revision gave wings to the Italians, enraged.

Italy came up in the final stretch and scored the goal of honor, deserved. In the 76′ Piemonte headed into the back of the net taking advantage of the laziness of the French defense. The second Italian was about to fall in discount but a French player saved on the line. In the end 5-1 for a much superior France but that he must avoid ‘leaving the game’ as he did in the second half, despite the comfortable victory.
