SPO:Bayern star bags hat-trick in ominous World Cup warning

Michael Olise has completed his hat-trick with a brilliant curler as France beat Northern Ireland 3-1 in their final World Cup warm-up game in Lille.

It was also the last game on French soil for coach Didier Deschamps, who steps down following the World Cup after 14 years in charge of Les Bleus. He picked Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele in a glittering attack along with Olise and Desire Doue.

Olise netted from close range in the 43rd minute after Dembele's shot was blocked, then grabbed his second in the 49th, blasting in from near the penalty spot after the visitors failed to clear a cross from the right.

Saving the best for last, the fleet-footed winger broke off the right wing and bent an unstoppable shot into the top left corner from 20 meters in the 75th.
