With a numerical advantage from the 13th minute, the Blues still failed to break through the German lock (1-1 after extra time), before losing in the penalty shootout.

This was enough to stun the players, whose disappointment was immense, particularly given the scenario, but also to fuel reactions on social media.

A particular play ignited Twitter: Amel Majri's penalty, saved by the German goalkeeper after a very unusual run-up, full of zigzags. Twitter users had a field day, here's a small selection!

France lost again in a penalty shootout, once more raising the relentless question of preparation for this exercise, especially given the performance of the German goalkeeper.

And you, do you think we don't prepare enough for penalty shootouts in France? 🤔
