A successful start for the French team. Playing their first game of this World Cup on Tuesday (November 22nd), the Blues managed to win against Australia by a wide score of four to one. Despite a quickly conceding first goal, Antoine Griezmann’s teammates managed to keep the game going on their own and eventually dominated the match. However, it would be an understatement to say that an extraordinary atmosphere marked the match. Indeed, while the few meetings held since the start of the competition were distinguished by breathless atmospheres, this was not the case for France/Australia. When asked at a press conference about the support of the 3,000 French spectators at the Al Wakrah stadium (south of Doha), Ousmane Dembélé first greeted the Blues fans in Qatar.
“I heard the fans encouraged us behind the goal. We were very happy”According to comments reported by RMC Sport said in the introduction. “We need their support to get very far in this race”continued, the FC Barcelona winger at a press conference. But after a while, he ironically admitted: “Not the Velodrome or Borussia Dortmund…” in terms of atmosphere. “But we were so pleased with their support, we finally went to applaud them. We need all the French to go forward in this competition.”, more seriously, finished Ousmane Dembélé. Nearly one million foreign fans are expected in the emirate during this World Cup. As French Ambassador to Qatar Jean-Baptiste Faivre explained in an interview in early November, 10,000 of them must be Blues fans.
