For this first international break of the season, France continued their faultless qualifying for the next Euro and chained a fifth victory in as many matches. Didier Deschamps’ men took the lead thanks to a shot from 30 meters from Aurélien Tchouaméni (20′). The new Inter player Marcus Thuram widened the gap (48th).
The Netherlands, who were playing only their third match in these qualifications, bent Greece in half time. Marteen De Roon from a corner (17th), Cody Gakpo (31st) then Wout Weghorst (39th) allowed the Dutch to return to 2nd in the group with 6 points, behind France (15 points).
In the other groups, Poland beat the Faroe Islands (2-0) with a brace from Robert Lewandowski, but are still ranked behind Albania and Czechia, who left in a draw (1-1) at the same time in group E.
Tied on points (7) before the match, Serbs and Hungarians were fighting for the lead in group G and it was Hungary who won this duel (1-2). Earlier, Lithuania and Montenegro shared the points (2-2).
In Group H, Finland, already leaders, beat Kazakhstan away (0-1) and now has 12 points. This is two more than Denmark, who easily disposed of San Marino (4-0) with the new Anderlechtois Kasper Schmeichel in goal, and than Slovenia, superior to Northern Ireland (4-2) despite a goal from new Standard player Isaac Price.
