France Draws With Canada In Final Euro 2024 Warmup

France played a goalless draw against Canada in their final warmup match ahead of the European Championship. Star player Kylian Mbappé was given limited playing time, coming on in the 74th minute. The match also marked Olivier Giroud's farewell to the French national team as he is set to retire after Euro 2024. Giroud, who will be joining Los Angeles FC in Major League Soccer, bid adieu to the home crowd in Bordeaux.

Mbappé, who recently transferred from Paris Saint-Germain to Real Madrid, failed to make an impact in the match after scoring in the previous friendly against Luxembourg. Despite reports of not being fully fit, Mbappé is expected to play a crucial role for France in the upcoming tournament, with their first game scheduled against Austria on June 17.
