L’Equipe’s assessment of Inter forward Marcus Thuram’s performance in France’s friendly defeat to Germany was scathing and unforgiving.

Les Bleus fell short against their traditional rivals in the Saturday evening friendly at the Groupama Stadium, succumbing to a 2-0 defeat following goals from Florian Wirtz and Kai Havertz. This result raised concerns for Didier Deschamps’ team as they prepare for the upcoming European Championship.

Thuram was included in France’s starting lineup against Germany but was substituted off in the 61st minute for Milan veteran Olivier Giroud. His contribution against die Mannschaft was lackluster, managing only one shot and completing just 12 passes, failing to make a significant impact.

L’Equipe’s assessment of Thuram’s performance was overwhelmingly negative, awarding him a dismal rating of 3, accompanied by the comment: “Isolated, the striker never really seemed to be in the game. He missed an opportunity to beat the competition in view of the European Championships.”

Despite his importance to Simone Inzaghi’s Inter team this season, forming a potent partnership with Lautaro Martinez, Thuram’s display against Germany left much to be desired.
