Watch: Theo Hernandez’s outstanding slide challenge denies Carrasco | OneFootball

France found it tough against Belgium in their European Championship last 16 tie last night, but they got over the line thanks to an own-goal and another clean sheet.

It was Jan Vertonghen who stuck out a leg in the 85th minute that deflected the ball in, and that got Les Bleus into the quarter-finals of Euro 2024, but another resilient defensive effort helped which Theo Hernandez and Mike Maignan contributed to.

It was a tackle on Yannick Carrasco by the left-back that stole the headlines; a perfectly-timed intervention that he had to get right and was straight out of the school of Paolo Maldini.
