So, this World Cup finally served a goalless draw in its platter, not to mention one of the dullest matches of this edition of the tournament too. With the Round of 16 qualifications somewhat confirmed for both the teams, the players slowed down the tempo of the game and there was hardly anything noteworthy throughout the duration of the 90 minutes.
Denmark hardly looked to attack, as their primary objective was to ensure a draw that would seal their spot in the next round of the tournament. Didier Deschamps had rung in the changes, making as many as six variations in the starting XI from the game against Peru. Players such as Samuel Umtiti, Paul Pogba, Kylian Mbappe and Hugo Lloris were rested and there was an obvious dip in the performance of the team from a collective perspective too.
France might not make so many changes yet again further in the tournament, and they would hope that their star players would have utilized this break to a good extent to be fresh for the knockout stages of the tournament too.
