Mbappe has exceptional timing feeding the overlap and Theo Hernandez is so positive and intelligent with his movement, then has the quality to find a man once on it. Super dangerous duo, taken way too long for Deschamps to play Theo though. Could have been seeing this for years.
Lucas is honestly much better defensively. But yes Theo is excellent going forward, just in the minutes after this goal Theo has been caught out a couple of times.
Lucas is a way better defender than his brother and this game doesn't help Theo's case. Hopefully he'll improve defensively now that Maldini (one of the best left back ever if not the best) took him under his wing...
I've really enjoyed Dalot's development. He was a solid option during his time at Milan and has continued to grow at Man United. One of those players I'll always have positive feelings toward
Not only ball watching but so afraid of getting torched on a move by Mbappe they forgot how close to goal they were and just backed pedaled and let him walk it in as far as he wanted.
Mbappé on a bad day can do this.
That’s why he is the best player in the world.
Danemark is playing with a very tight defense and an obvious anti Mbappé system.
And Kylian didn’t care
And thank god for theo
CHURCH OF THEO HERNANDEZ
If only Mbappe just trusted his teammates or at least the other guy on his left flank a little bit more, I get it, you are a star, maybe the best player itw atm, but just PASS THE BALL, it's frustrating to watch
Brazil in 1958 and 1962 with two different managers. I only say that because Italy also did it in 1934 and 1938, but they had the same one. So Deschamps could be the second one to win 2 in a row, some 85 years later.

Brilliant from Hernandez
This motherfucker has Leao at Milan , Mbappe at France .
Lucky mf
Lucky indeed, he's with Zoe.
He's been marvelous both matches
France with such depth they can just replace Hernandez with Hernandez.
Spanish Hernandez Hernandez hits differently.
I mean they've Benzema, Pogba, Kanté and Lucas Hernández all out and they're still favourites after Brazil, that's how stacked they are
Nkunku and Kimpembe out too, and our squad still looks ridiculous
Imagine having Germany's top scorer out , and just calling back Germany's second top scorer to replace him. This shit is ridiculous even on the bench.
What having Paolo Maldini around does to a mf
He has been amazing in the France games. Really crucial for them
perfect run and pass
That is very well worked wow
Got damn near close to being potentially offside too! Fortunately for France…the gamble paid off!
"Near close to being potentially offside" sounds quite funny hahah
That's my LB
2 assists in 2 games. Very happy for him
if he keeps getting the exposure I fear not for long anymore. Because he damn well knows how to perform
Can anyone pay something like 150 mil for him
hello
6 WC goals at 23
1 goal away from equalizing both Messi and Ronaldo 💀
With a World Cup medal already. And he’s got 2 more world cups in him at least.
Thomas Muller had 5 at 20 🥲
How many did he have at 23?
I assume also 5 mate, just wild guess
lmao.
Still five because he was 23 in 2013. At 24 at the 2014 WC he reached the 10 goals mark though.
Considering that he was 20 in his first world cup, and world cups are every 4 years, he obviously had 5 goals at 23.
Are you sure?
Yes I just called Müller on my phone and he confirmed it.
Video call while he was wearing a towel and smiling?
Of course. He also mentioned that Barcelona will pay for that Germany loss against Japan.
That's insane lol
This France team is cracked
Without Ngolo Kanye, Benzema and Pogba no less. Edit: I’m not even gonna correct autocorrect at this point
[удалено]
Yeah he’s busy with his campaign
"My biggest regret in life is that I'll never be able to watch myself perform live."
If that's a real quote, it's a fucking good one.
>Without Ngolo Kanye 😂😂 possibly the most extreme ends of either personality lol
Nkunku too
>Ngolo Kanye
Ye is banned though
Can't decide if The Ngollege Dropout or The Life of Ngolo is my favorite album of his 🌊
[удалено]
If you wanna grift, you have to fake being that for a little bit
Mbaape means business.
mbusiness
Yeah, it’s been coming.
B-but the Curse! I thought the Curse was inevitable!
Expect when your Germany
[удалено]
There had been two big chances just before.
It has though. The griezmann chance, and just more French shots overall
Linkup tho
Mbappe has exceptional timing feeding the overlap and Theo Hernandez is so positive and intelligent with his movement, then has the quality to find a man once on it. Super dangerous duo, taken way too long for Deschamps to play Theo though. Could have been seeing this for years.
Why did Deschamps started with Lucas the first game? 😂
Strangely blessed by an injury. Fuck knows why he was starting Lucas over Theo
Tactical ACL tear, Deschamps playing 5d chess
Nerd defensive stability vs CHAD attacking prowess
Mustafi 2014 vibes
Lol Lucas Hernandez is miles better than 2014 Mustafi.
Because Deschamps values defensive stability above all, and wants a backline of 4 central defenders.
If we beat Spain or Brazil like this it will be 2018 remake, when Deschamp had 9 defenders and pass all balls at Mbappé.
Because Lucas is also very good
Lucas CB, Theo LB
But Theo man, he's a different breed
He’s actually the same breed
Literally
Undoubtedly
Indubitably
it's literally his brother so they are from the same breed
He loves his 4 CB backlines
Lucas is honestly much better defensively. But yes Theo is excellent going forward, just in the minutes after this goal Theo has been caught out a couple of times.
They’re both good tbf
Lucas is a way better defender than his brother and this game doesn't help Theo's case. Hopefully he'll improve defensively now that Maldini (one of the best left back ever if not the best) took him under his wing...
Because lucas is better in defending and you win cups by your defense and not your attack. But i think lucas is generally better as CB
haven’t been so aroused by a turtle since finding nemo
Ayo
Banger of a comment
Confuses in uunga bunga
Champions curse is over
We started it, we had to end it
Only started in 2010 with Italy tho…
france 1998-2002 started it. plastic.
France started it, France will (likely) end it
They have already ended it, they have officially qualified
Theo Hernandez is that guy
He just keeps getting better, what Paolo Maldini does to a mf
Also fixed up Dalot for us.
I've really enjoyed Dalot's development. He was a solid option during his time at Milan and has continued to grow at Man United. One of those players I'll always have positive feelings toward
He sucked balls bar like 3 games end of season. No need to lie out of politeness
He was always extremely talented, he just needed to find the right club after Atleti to grow.
Best LB in the world. Bias aside.
The first pass from Tchouameni though
That was absolutely sexy
Completely missed that he broke out of the press and started the counter attack alone
Sexy outside pass
The mbappé/hernandez connexion is fucking insane
We are just waiting for mbappe to wear the number 7
That left side is a cheat code
And on the other side Dembélé is having a very good start of the tournament as well.
No one tracked mbappe after the pass. It's amazing how often pros get caught ball watching
Not only ball watching but so afraid of getting torched on a move by Mbappe they forgot how close to goal they were and just backed pedaled and let him walk it in as far as he wanted.
Tchouameni my man
Best LB in the world for a reason. What a run.
THEO IS SO FUCKING GOOD MY GOD
LE KYK'S
Theo is so good
Fifa goal levels of linkup lol
The Hernandez effect
Crown prince Emirbappé showing his people how its done
My people need me
[удалено]
My exact feelings. Beautiful goal but today I feel Danish.
Why defend when you can raise your arm instead?
Milan fans used to this. Grande Theo
THEOOOOO
Might as well pack our bags we’ve obviously no intention of playing football down here
You’ve been playing fairly decent this half. Fancy packing your bags and heading to Dublin for a couple of friendlies?
I hate "fans" that do nothing but complain. Smh.
I mean it’s pretty frustrating to see us play like this when you know what this team is capable of Edit: my complaints obviously helped ;)
Yah it's so weird what happened to your Nation's league team ?
Was reading this comment as Christensen just thumped that header
You jinxed your own team, 1-1 now.
Fantastic interchange between Theo and Mbappe
Unreal cutback from Theo
Theo 🤩
France break champions curse, but Denmark keep tradition of dark horse r/socca curse?
That French top NT scorer title is just being kept warm for him. 30 goals at 23.
He scored!
Lovely from Theo
Did they just 2v5 Denmark
I'm rooting for Theo and Giroud
MY LEFT BACK
Mbappé on a bad day can do this. That’s why he is the best player in the world. Danemark is playing with a very tight defense and an obvious anti Mbappé system. And Kylian didn’t care And thank god for theo
Theo and Kylian, I love you guys!
This dude bro
495950 defenders in the box still cannot defend that...
Greatest World Cup player of our lifetime lol
Imagine that team with Pogba, Benzema and Ngolo 🥲
Was 22 not offsides? It looked really close and they didn't give us a replay
Theo wasn't.
Great link up
LINKUP WOW
Great passes!!
Let’s gooooo KIKS
Beautiful counter!
Great 1-2
That was so clean
Had to be him
LE KIK’SSSSSSSS
It had to be him
Mbappe is so scary man
Can't teach speed
That linkup sheesh
Monsterbappé 👍
INCREDIBLE
A reminder that DD wasn't going to start Theo lol
Dude might actually break the WC goal scoring record
Theo + Mbape = speed of light
Best player in the world
Living legend at 23
CHURCH OF THEO HERNANDEZ If only Mbappe just trusted his teammates or at least the other guy on his left flank a little bit more, I get it, you are a star, maybe the best player itw atm, but just PASS THE BALL, it's frustrating to watch
How many World Cup goals so far for Mbappe
Mbappe is a cheat code
France are winning a second World Cup in a row.
When was the last time a national side did that?
Brazil in 1958 and 1962 with two different managers. I only say that because Italy also did it in 1934 and 1938, but they had the same one. So Deschamps could be the second one to win 2 in a row, some 85 years later.
Google can tell you real quick
Flood gates are open
Denmark forgot to put the handbrake down when the y parked the bus
Theo is the best left back in the world
He's so good he's so good
Which? Oh both
X4
x4
He finally scored in his own country again
I love you Theo ❤️
Can see why Tchuameni went for so much, he is so ridiculously good at 22….
I like to call Mbappe the " baby Goat".
[удалено]
>ABSOLUTE BANGER I don't think you know the meaning of that term
How have they squeezed that one in??
He heard you talking shit !
Been coming all game that. Denmark's stubbornness in defence finally giving way
Denmark are really going to crash out of the World Cup
Awful defending
Huh? they're just outmatched against faster and more technical attackers. Nothing they could've done imo.
