Antoine Griezmann a little more in the story. Starting for his 80th match in a row in Blue this Tuesday, in Dortmund, against Germany, the Atlético Madrid player honors his 123rd selection for the French team. As much as Thierry Henry. The two men appear in fourth place among the most capped players in the selection behind Hugo Lloris (145), Lilian Thuram (142) and Olivier Giroud (125), the only one of the leading trio active since Lloris retired internationally after the 2022 World Cup. Holder against Ireland (2-0) last Thursday, at the Parc des Princes, the latter was forced to forfeit the match in Germany, injured in the ankle.
Griezmann, 32, made his debut for the France team on March 5, 2014 against the Netherlands (2-0). With 36 assists, he is the best passer in the selection, but also the third scorer (43).
