While Mbappe struggled to ignite, Olise produced a performance that cemented his status as France’s most in-form player heading into the tournament. The 24-year-old was relentless, pouncing on rebounds either side of the interval before completing his treble with a stunning curled effort from distance.
Deschamps was glowing in his assessment of the winger, suggesting that Olise might even be the team’s primary offensive threat right now. He said: “He’s radiant, just like his season at Bayern. Everything is easy for him. He’s efficient, and that’s great. We’ll also need other players.”
