France did not feel a huge number of injuries at all. It seems that some losses even benefited. For example, the departure of Karim Benzema seemed a disaster – after all, the best player of last season. But in fact, France was more balanced without him.
And Giroud now does his most important job without worrying – he makes space for Mbappe and Dembele. And Griezmann perfectly untie the hands of his partners. French colleagues also noted that Karim’s departure made it easier for the players to feel more relaxed.
The next point is Lucas Hernandez’s injury in the match against Australia. The defender was very unfortunate – he tore his cruciate ligaments. But the injury paved the way for his brother Theo, who is a more attacking edge defender. Now the French left flank is a killer mix of Hernandez’s running and Mbappe’s dribbling.

So clearly all the players of the national team interacted, building triangles on the flanks; Giroud clearly went deep, and Mbappe and Dembele were tearing on the flanks. France dominated Denmark as much as possible in a game against a strong national team (a European Championship semifinalist): a 20-10 advantage in shots, and 2.58 to 0.77 in xG.
In the game with Denmark it seemed as if a club team took the field instead of France.

Only Spain can match this team in terms of meaningfulness, but they only played Costa Rica. The French are already in the playoffs — they have overcome the curse of world champions who don’t make the group at the next tournament. So why not win the trophy for a second straight time? They have everything they need to do that.
