The France national football team, Les Blues has been very successful having triumphed in two FIFA World Cups, two FIFA Confederations Cups, one CONMEBOL-UEFA Cup of Champions, two UEFA European Championships, and a UEFA Nations League championship. The 1980s, the late 1990s/early 2000s, and the late 2010s were the three periods in which France saw the most of its success, which brought about many prestigious laurels.

The reigning world cup champions were impressive in their first match in Qatar with a 4-1 victory, which was followed by a 2-1 win against Denmark. The team was stunned by lowly-rated Carthage Eagles of Tunisia by a lone goal in its third match. That defeat doesn't have effect on sealing the top spot in the group and will next face Poland on Sunday.

The news coming from the French camp has not been encouraging, the situation is very similar to what happened in the Belgium camp after their defeat to Morocco. Reports claimed the team has split on a player's performance after harsh words from Manager, Didier Deschamps. The affected player had started France first game but was dropped for the next game.

He was seen as the player at fault for Australia's shocking opening goal and was substituted for Jules Kounde at the end of the game. The 26-year-old was replaced by the Barcelona defender for the following game against Denmark, which Les Blues won 2-1 to secure their advancement to the knockout round.

The teammates with constrating opinion on the player

The experienced duo of Hugo Lloris and Olivier Giroud are reportedly standing by their teammate while Barcelona player Ousmane Dembele is apparently dissatisfied with the player performances. Deschamps said he had conversation with the player after making decision not to select him in the starting line up.
