37′ 1T: Austria – Goal against Maximilian Wöber
France achieved his first victory at Euro 2024 after his debut against Austria, in Dusseldorf. It was 1-0 for the world runners-up, by a goal against Maximilian Wöber, Borussia Monchengladbach defender. The great concern of the French was a blow that took Kylian Mbappé in the nose, which forced him to leave the field after having lost a lot of blood.
Austria vs. France, for the Euro Cup: Wöber’s goal against (1-0)
The game started much more even than imagined. France attacked directly from the wings with Mbappé and Dembélé open, but Austria defended very well and made things difficult – sometimes, abusing fouls – for the French team, which in the first half hour of play only had an approach, when Mbappé filtered in speed after a one-touch start from the back: Kylian wanted to finish at the near post and goalkeeper Pentz closed it well.
At 35 came the clearest of the game and it was for Austria: Sabitzer lowered a cross to Baumgartner, who was hand in hand with Maignan and wanted to define with a subtle touch over the goalkeeper before the Frenchman’s bail, who ended up blocking him what seemed to be a goal. And if the Austrian team wasted that, after two minutes they suffered with France’s goal: it was practically in the only attack where Mbappé was stopped on the right side, where he reached the bottom to throw the center back and ended up finding Wöber’s head , who in his eagerness to reject, ended up heading back and scoring 1-0 for France. With that result, the game went to halftime.
In the second half, Mbappé could have extended the advantage in a very clear one-on-one in which he had time to choose how to finish and ended up opening the shot too much. The minutes passed and the French were unable to take advantage of any counterattacks with enough space to end the game. The second half was a more open process, because Austria had to go in search of the opposite goal, but without many ideas to find the tie.
In the end, Mbappé had to leave due to a blow to the nose after a collision with Kevin Danso, where the Frenchman hit the Austrian defender’s back with his face and ended up with significant bleeding. Kylian could not complete the match and set off an alarm light in France, beyond the victory.
