raumdeuter:
When he does that for 7 matches in the tournament like Giroud let me know

Amoto94:
Bar the forced error Hummels had a decent game, the midfield pairing of Gundogan and Kroos offered no protection to the backline with Kimmich pushing forward to attack leaving Mbappe in a 1v1 against Ginter he did well to limit the penetrating run of Mbappe.
For Germany to qualify they need to drop Muller/Havertz drop one of the CBs and revert to 4-2-3-1 with Werner or Volland as the FW they were missing a focal point in attack.

Emaprince:
He is try to build play for mbappe

MaziAlaye:
Bundled him out for Tolisso... Odogwu been dey bench too. I guess he left him out for a reason

MaziAlaye:
If benzema na bag of beans for not recording a single shot on target in a match, then Giroud that went through the whole World cup campaign without a single shot on target na wetin?

Unlimited22:
When we tell people Giroud is integral to the way France play they start attacking mindlessly, with an overdependence on stats their only weapon.

Now see how Benzema and Griezmann played.

airmark:
Deschamps is human too, proned to mistakes. He bundled him out and left Mbappe for a reason.

BlueRayDick:
Ur screenshot is only showing one thing ; the whole French was poor and only recorded a shot on target....same as their German counterpart. Nothing to see here honestly.

On a lighter note, Benzema manage score offside at least tonight, Giroud no even see offside knack inside net for 7 matches

raumdeuter:
This was exactly my analysis before the game

nihilistjnr:
What I saw here is zero shot on target with Benzema mostly playing in central midfield.

There's enough there to tell any analyst that Deschamps doesn't need his striker playing as a striker.

Which France was poor? Certainly not the one I watched.

raumdeuter:
Yet Giroud was left on the bench for almost 100mins of the game

Unlimited22:
Do Germany have another option on the right of defense?
Kimmich is being wasted there.

Or maybe they can get Florian Neuhaus in the team but Low no go gree

airmark:
Deschamps saw that Benzema had spoilt the game, he decided to defend and keep the win.

Benzema - 3 matches : No goal, 1 PK missed.

raumdeuter:
What might be the reason why only Giroud was dropped from the team that won in 2018

Dropped to the bench and didnt play 1 min

raumdeuter:
Rudiger took Chelsea to the CL title

raumdeuter:
Benzema 85mins played
Giroud 0mins played

By the same Deschamps

nihilistjnr:
I don't know...maybe the goddam fact that the man is 35 years old might play a part.

Actman05:
Therfore, Rudiger >>>>>>>>>Manolas.

airmark:
Yes.

Benzema 85mins played - No goal
Giroud 0mins played - No goal

raumdeuter:
Giroud is 34, Benzema is 33. So he replaced an old man with another old man.

Or could it be because he was a liability that his teammates complained about

Ibime:
One swallow does not make a summer. Rudiger has also been unwanted or underperforming for most of his Chelsea career

airmark:
Yes just as Mount >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> KDB

nihilistjnr:
Yes you're right, that's why Benzema scored a hat trick today with like 10 shots on target...oh wait
