Tonight, France will face Ireland at home in the key match of Group B. Although France has superior strength, it relies too much on quick counter-attacks led by Kilian McBarbee, which will make it difficult for them to defend, and it will not be in a hurry to attack. As for Ireland, the 2.5-goal margin is a good choice, given the fact that the two sides have rarely met each other in recent years. (Kick-off at 2:45am on Friday)
France won their first four matches and kept a clean sheet, both offensively and defensively. The main reason is that the strongest weapon of the "Gallic Chicken" is the fast counter-attack led by captain Kilian McBarbee, and it just so happens that the opponents in these three matches are all cowering, which makes France lack of space to play surprise attack. They are not strong in positional attacking, so they had a hard time winning, including a 3-0 win against Gibraltar, which is not a good idea to overestimate them.
On the other hand, Ireland's first three rounds of 1 win and 2 losses performance is not bad, in which the new stars such as Ivan Ferguson also emerged, but the Brighton arrow before the game due to injury withdrew from the team, the offensive power greatly reduced, and they face the strongest team point will not dare to attack, will strengthen the defense to stabilize the lineup first, and then to steal chicken.
