Debutants Maximilian Mittelstadt and_ Deniz Undav also had their moments, with Mittelstadt coming close to scoring his maiden international goal, only to be denied by a brilliant save from the French goalkeeper Brice Samba. The match ended with Germany securing their second consecutive win over France, providing a timely boost for Julian Nagelsmann’s team ahead of the upcoming UEFA European on home soil.
