France vs Netherlands LIVE!
France made it a miserable return to international management for Ronald Koeman as they ruthlessly dispatched of the Netherlands in a high-profile Euro 2024 qualifier on Friday night. Kylian Mbappe marked his first game as Les Bleus’ new full-time captain with two excellent goals as the dire Dutch were routed by an early 21-minute goal blitz in a one-sided heavyweight Group B affair in Paris.
Antoine Griezmann and Dayot Upamecano were also on target for Didier Deschamps’ rampant side, who sent out an emphatic first message on the long road to Germany and showed no signs of a lingering World Cup hangover in their first outing since the agony of losing on penalties to Argentina in the Qatar showpiece three months ago.
To add further insult to injury for the depleted Netherlands, Memphis Depay saw a last-gasp penalty awarded for handball against Upamecano easily saved by AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan. Follow France vs Netherlands reaction live below!
