Twenty years and two days after the fiasco of 1993, when a goal in the last minute of Bulgarian World Kostadinov got out of the United States to the selection of Michel Platini , France took revenge last night and took their tickets to Brazil with electric comeback against Ukraine. In a game at breakneck raised by Didier Deschamps , the bleus exceeded a Ukrainian who lived on the edge , too hung from its crossbar . France attempted to penetrate the yellow wall by all possible means , from electricity to Ribery, Benzema calm and bustle of Valbuena . And finally played intense , determined and sharp. Sometimes created steadily , Shagged much in places, and almost always seemed to have enough entity to trace the Kiev 2-0 . It was the first time ever in a World Cup play-off someone than 2-0 , and that glory was a blessing for a country that came to the appointment between skepticism and anger .
The selection tricolor, reviled by his audience before the game for his alleged lack of commitment, was supported by the President , François Hollande , and the center-right opposition . In the country, 80,000 spectators squeezed like beasts from the opening kickoff . Both groups had asked the depressive boys unit of the French team . Deschamps changed the 4-3-2-1 for a 4-3-3 very dynamic , with Valbuena hitch, trying to conserve and recover the ball quickly with Cabaye , and arrivals take Pogba from media.
The plan worked by crushing, in fits and starts, in part thanks to the blues overdrive own: in the second minute France had already established two times in a row, but the Ukrainian goalkeeper pulled a miraculous hand and a moment later nobody could finish off a low cross and Benzema venom paced the small area.
Aware that the bet was all or nothing, the Frenchman had changed over half team. Benzema came through Giroud and was slightly less lazy than usual. Ribéry put forward and overflow. Varane is shielded behind the lefty Sakho, and the two went to finish Valbuena pumped balls, but was cast out Pogba which Franco scored in the eighth minute and Benzema who headed over shortly thereafter.
