فرانسه مقابل ساحل عاج

A stunning comeback in Nantes handed France a 1-2 defeat as Ivory Coast turned the game on its head at the Stade de la Beaujoire. Amad Diallo's composed 85th-minute finish was the decisive blow, a first-time slot from a Guéla Doué cross that completed a memorable away victory. Rayan Cherki had given France the lead on the stroke of half-time, drilling a precise right-footed strike into the bottom corner after an Ibrahima Konaté assist. Ivory Coast levelled swiftly after the break when Doué swept home in the 53rd minute following a sharp move involving Nicolas Pépé. The match was played in good spirit, no red cards or penalties disrupted the flow. Ivory Coast were the more clinical side throughout and head into their World Cup opener against Ecuador on June 15 with real confidence. For France, Deschamps will want a sharper performance against Northern Ireland before the tournament begins.
