In the opening match of the 2020 European Football Championship qualifiers, the world champion French national team started off strongly. On Friday, France managed to defeat Moldova 4-1 in an away game, and on Monday, they crushed Iceland's footballers 4-0 at home. After the victory against Iceland, one of the leaders of the world champions, Antoine Griezmann, stated that the team trusts in their abilities, and their goal is to take the first place in the group. "It was very important to earn all six points. Now we are in a good situation. We trust in our abilities. It doesn't matter how many goals we score in each match, the most important thing is to earn three points. We did it and we are very happy. Our goal is the first place in the group. We know that tough matches await us, such as in Turkey. We must be well prepared and give our all on the field," Griezmann told journalists. France is competing in the European Championship qualifiers in Group H, where they are also facing Turkey, Albania, Iceland, Andorra, and Moldova.
