The French national team held a public training session in Germany, drawing a crowd of 4000 fans. The session took place at the Home Deluxe Arena in Paderborn, with the city showing its support for the team with posters, French flags, and illuminated buildings. However, notable players like Kylian Mbappé and Kingsley Coman did not participate due to various health issues.
Mbappé, who had been dealing with back and knee problems, was given a break from training to recover. Coman, on the other hand, was affected by a virus circulating among the team. Despite these absences, captain Aurélien Tchouameni and Ibrahima Konaté continued their individual training sessions in preparation for their upcoming matches.
The team seemed fatigued during the training session, possibly due to the intense physical activity. With just four days left before their match against Austria, the players focused on ball possession drills and mini-tournaments to work on their technical skills. Adrien Rabiot stood out during the session, showing good form and energy on the field.
As they prepare for their first match, the team will have a different training schedule, including closed-door sessions to fine-tune their tactics and strategies. Despite the challenges, the French national team remains determined to perform well in the upcoming competition. With the support of their fans and the dedication of the players, the team is looking forward to a successful campaign in Germany.
