Zapping Eleven Mondial CAN: Algeria’s calendar
A first hitch in the preparation of the Nations League final for the France team! This Sunday, the Blues will face Spain in a capital shock after taking out Belgium 3-2. A shock that will be marked by the absence of a French holder, in the person of Adrien Rabiot. Indeed, as revealed by the FFF this morning, the player tested positive for Covid-19, and will therefore miss the match against La Roja. A hard blow for Didier Deschamps who had established him against the Red Devils. The player will not be replaced as indicated in the press release. In his place, Aurélien Tchouaméni, very efficient when he came into play in the semifinals, has a good chance of being aligned. Finally, the fear of seeing other cases add up exists, and the next few hours should give us an answer as to this possible problem.
The press release
“Adrien Rabiot will not be able to participate in the final of the Nations League on Sunday at 8:45 p.m., against Spain. The Juventus Turin midfielder has tested positive for Covid-19. As a result and as soon as the results are known , Adrien Rabiot has been placed in solitary confinement. He will not rally Milan with his team-mates. Adrien Rabiot cannot be replaced for regulatory reasons. Didier Deschamps can therefore rely on a group of 21 players for the final against the ‘Spain.”
to summarize
The France team will have to do without Adrien Rabiot for the Nations League final against Spain. The Juventus Turin player has tested positive for Covid-19 and will therefore be forfeited for Sunday’s grand final.
