Italy beat France 3-1 in Nations League at San Siro; former former France manager Domenech criticized both teams on social media.
Italy defeated France 3-1 in a Nations League match at San Siro, with Pio Esposito scoring to equalize at 1-1 before the hosts completed their comeback. Former former France manager Raymond Domenech, who coached the Bleus from 2004 to 2010 and lost the 2006 World Cup final to Italy, commented on the match via social media.
After Esposito's goal made it 1-1, Domenech wrote: "They are weak in every department, but what surprises me most is their technical level. They make so many errors in passing." Following the final whistle, Domenech doubled down with criticism of France, writing: "3-1, how is it possible they completely lost their bearings like this?
The defensive gaps of the French national team are confirmed." He added that Olise's poor performance contributed to France's collapse, concluding: "Football is simple."
