After the Real Madrid striker opened the scoring (51′), France conceded two goals from Andreas Cornelius (68′ and 88′), who had jumped from the substitutes’ bench to spoil the party for the 75,800 spectators present in the stadium.
The 2018 world champion recorded her first loss of the season, and had not lost since last year’s European Championship. And now the pupils of Didier Deschamps -absent in the match due to the recent death of his father- are third, three points behind Denmark and Austria, who beat Croatia 3-0, where Les Bleus will play on Monday.
Along with the defeat, France also lost striker Kylian Mbappé due to injury, who was substituted at half-time due to discomfort in his left knee.
The 23-year-old, in pain, sat on the pitch at the Stade de France and requested the intervention of the medical service during added time in the first half.
