Oct 14, 2023 02:50 ISTMatch Report
France qualified for the Euro 2024 which is set to take place in Germany, next summer with their 2-1 victory over Netherlands at the Johan Cruyff Arena in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
France was visibly the better side on the pitch but Netherlands had their chances too. The match was never expected to be an one sided encounter and it definitely wasn't one.
Kylian Mbappe have France the lead, just under 10 minutes and it was an amazing team goal. But after that, the French side never really created any clear goal scoring opportunity until his second goal, which was a stunner.
The Dutch side also found a clear goal scoring chance in the first half but Veerman put too much power behind the ball and his shot missed the target. Although Hartman gave Netherlands a chance to make a comeback by scoring a late goal but it was not enough to stop France from reaching the Euro 2024 in Germany.
