France 4-1 Belgium: how it happened

Belgium led at half-time through Dodi Lukebakio, who finished calmly in the first half. Zinedine Zidane's substitutes then changed the game. France scored four goals in about 14 minutes late on:

  • Desire Doue equalised,
  • Rayan Cherki put France ahead,
  • Michael Olise scored twice to finish it.

The win keeps France unbeaten in Group A1 and three points clear of Italy, with Belgium a point behind the Italians, according to Dawn and UEFA.

In Bologna, Gianluca Scamacca gave Italy a half-time lead, Aral Simsir equalised for Turkiye after the break, then Riccardo Calafiori headed Italy back in front and Pio Esposito made it 3-1 late on. Italy move up to second in the group.
