France was in a disadvantageous position at the back.
France are very poor defensively and will need to tighten up at the back if they are to turn this game around. England did well in the first half, but will look to give France more trouble in the second half.
France certainly have the attacking elements to make the difference in this game and bounce back in the second half. It remains to be seen whether they will be able to act together.
