The France national team scored 10 goals in the group stage, its best total at this stage of a World Cup since 1958.
What changed?
Coach Didier Deschamps integrated Michael Olise in September 2024 to install him as number 10, which gave birth to the idea of the 4-2-3-1.
The group stage figures reflect an irresistible efficiency and variety of threat.
Key players
Kylian Mbappé and Ousmane Dembélé each scored 4 goals, while Bradley Barcola and Désiré Doué also opened their scoring account.
