A sad defeat for Les Bleus, which also unfortunately led to the breaking of some historic records in the process.

Indeed, according to Opta, you have to go back to March 12, 1969 to see the French team concede five goals. That was a 5-0 defeat against England.

Furthermore, still according to Opta, this is only the fourth time that Les Bleus have lost after scoring more than three goals in a match.

4 - C'est la 122e fois de son histoire que l'équipe de France marque plus de 3 buts dans un match, seulement la 4e fois qu'elle ne gagne pas, après des défaites contre la Yougoslavie en 1960 (4-5), l'Italie en 1920 (4-9) et le Luxembourg en 1914 (4-5). Folie.

Fortunately for Didier Deschamps, the sublime entrance of Rayan Cherki helped soften the blow.
