France vs England 3-2 Highlights & Goals
International Friendly, 13 June 2017.
0-1 Harry Kane
1-1 Umtiti
2-1 Sidibe
2-2 Harry Kane
3-2 Dembele
France 3-2 England: They may have played practically the entirety of the first half with 10 men, but it is France who managed to get the decisive goal through Dembele after Kane had levelled things up from the spot shortly after the restart. It was a great performance from Deschamps' side, despite losing Varane to a red card.
Harrky Kane had opened the scoring after nine minutes, but goals from Umtiti, Sidibe and Paul Pogba assists put France ahead until the Tottenham striker's penalty. For Southgate, the fact his team failed to push on and take advantage of their numerical superiority will provide some cause for concern.
France will host England at the Stade de France in Paris on Tuesday in what promises to be an intriguing international friendly.
France were beaten in dramatic style by Sweden, as a late error from goalkeeper Hugo Lloris saw the team condemned to a 2-1 loss. England, meanwhile, were held to a 2-2 draw by Scotland on Saturday.
