France should hold no fear ahead of facing Belgium in the round of 16 at Euro 2024, according to Christophe Dugarry.
Les Bleus, who were among the favourites prior to the tournament in Germany, finished second behind Austria in Group D after some unconvincing performances.
Indeed, their goals came from a Maximilian Wober own goal and a Kylian Mbappe penalty, with France landing themselves in the tougher half of the draw along with Spain, Portugal, hosts Germany and last-16 opponents Belgium, who they play on Monday in Dusseldorf.
That has seen their chances of winning the trophy slip down to 13%, according to Opta s supercomputer, but looking ahead to Monday s clash with Belgium, Duggary, who won the World Cup in 1998 and Euros in 2000, feels France have nothing …
Real Madrid reached the Copa del Rey final for the first time since 2014 as a Karim Benzema hat-trick and a Vinicius Junior strike earned a 4-0 Clasico victory over Barcelona at Camp Nou and a 4-1 triumph on aggregate.
Eder Militao s own goal at the Bernabeu had Barca heading into Wednesday s second leg with a 1-0 advantage, but Vinicius goal in first-half added time got Madrid back into the tie.
Carlo Ancelotti s men then took over after the break, Benzema putting them ahead with a sublime finish before coolly converting from the spot after Vinicius was felled.
The reigning Ballon d Or winner clinched his hat-trick late on to dump the 31-time winners out and set Madrid up to meet Osasuna in the showpiece match on May 6.
The man. The myth. The legend.

Hugo Lloris says it is not the time to discuss his international future, following France s defeat to Argentina in the World Cup final.
A six-goal thriller ultimately went the way of Argentina, with Les Bleus all-time leading appearance holder unable to save any of the penalties he faced in the shoot-out.
Now 35, Lloris has been part of France s national set-up for 14 years and has been captain since 2010, and there have been questions as to whether he would continue in Didier Deschamps ranks.
However, the captain batted away those queries and believes the result will take time to digest, telling TF1: Now is not the time to answer those questions.
It s a painful night for all the players, the staff, the management and all the supporters, even if we achie…
Carlo Ancelotti suggested Spanish football has a problem with racism after Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior was abused again on Sunday.
LaLiga launched an investigation on Monday after social media footage showed racist insults being directed at Vinicius during Madrid s 1-0 defeat at Real Mallorca on Sunday.
The 22-year-old was subjected to racist abuse in both of Madrid s matches with city rivals Atletico Madrid this season, while LaLiga filed hate crime charges to Spanish courts after similar incidents in December s game with Real Valladolid.
Vinicius accused LaLiga in December of doing nothing to combat racism, and his head coach feels Spanish football must face up to the issue.
The question I ask is this: What is the problem? Ancelotti told reporters…
Slough boss Scott Davies is back involved in the FA Cup first round but this time the only rush he is seeking is the high of a win.
Davies, who is candid enough to admit he lost his professional career because of gambling, was a player at Crawley when they reached the fifth round in 2012.
Under the stewardship of Steve Evans, Crawley won four ties before they were beaten by then-Premier League opposition in Stoke, but Davies laughs upon the realisation that he did not contribute towards that run.
“It sounds normal for me, but I fell out with the manager that season, so I didn’t play a big part at all,” Davies told the PA news agency ahead of sixth-tier Slough hosting Sky Bet League Two outfit Grimsby on Sunday.
We can now confirm that all available …
