France did not have to wait long for a win in the Nations League.

After the opening loss, 1–3 to Italy, the first three-pointer came at home against Belgium, 2–0.

Randal Kolo Muani sent in a rebound after 29 minutes and in the 57th, Ousmane Dembélé scored the match's final goal.

National team captain Didier Deschamps chose to rotate the starting eleven, which meant that star Kylian Mbappé – who played the entire match against Italy – had to start on the bench and was substituted in in the 67th.

Italy tops group 2 in the A division after the win against Israel. Davide Frattesi and Moise Kean scored the goals in the 2–1 match.
