France secured their qualification on Thursday against Ukraine, while Azerbaijan is already eliminated. There’s therefore a slight lack of stakes. But it could still be an exciting match. The pressure is less intense, which could help. France could also rotate their squad, with points to be gained for the future.
And of course, there’s the desire to represent their country well and enjoy themselves on the pitch. France is expected to put on a show, but they should be wary of their opponents’ desire to pull off a victory for pride.
