France beat Israel in Budapest

France beat Israel in a Nations League game played in Hungary because of the Israel-Gaza war.

 

Eduardo Camavinga gave the French an early lead in Budapest with a 25-yard strike that was spilled by Israel keeper Omri Glazer.

 

Israel levelled through Omri Gandelman’s header from an Oscar Gloukh cross.

 

But Christopher Nkunku put Les Bleus ahead in the 28th minute when he slotted in from a tight angle.

 

France netted two late goals to make the scoreline look better with Matteo Guendouzi netting from the edge of the area and then picking out Bradley Barcola for a fourth.

 

It was France’s first game since the international retirement of legend Antoine Griezmann, while Kylian Mbappe was ruled out through injury.
