On the roof of the world in June, the French failed to qualify for the Final Four of the League of Nations after a defeat suffered in Holland (2-0) in November. The men of Deschamps have therefore finished behind the Netherlands and Holland. In friendly, the Blues have defied the defeat by conceding a draw against Iceland in Roudourou (2-2) before winning against Uruguay (1-0). For its entry in the lists in these qualifications, France logically dominated, out of its bases, a weak Moldavian selection (4-1).
