UEFA Nations League: France Secure Third Place With 2-0 Win Vs Germany
UEFA Nations League: Kylian Mbappe’s landmark 50th international goal propelled France to a 2-0 victory over hosts Germany at the MHP Arena, securing third place in the UEFA Nations League and rounding off their campaign on a high.
The match began in lively fashion, with Germany dominating early exchanges. Mike Maignan had to react sharply in just the second minute to deny Nick Woltemade, and moments later, Lucas Digne cleared a Niclas Füllkrug effort off the line. Florian Wirtz came closest to breaking the deadlock, striking the post with a clever effort in the 37th minute.
Despite Germany's early pressure, it was France who drew first blood just before half-time. Mbappé picked up the ball on the left, cut inside, and curled a stunning shot past Marc-André ter Stegen to reach his 50th goal for Les Bleus. The strike places him one behind Thierry Henry in the country’s all-time scoring charts and seven behind Olivier Giroud who leads the tally.
