France – the shape of the team and its analysis
"Les Bleus" cannot set low expectations for this summer. They have reached the finals three times since 2016, but had a disappointing performance in the last Euro. Despite this, they qualified solidly and early in 2023, including a 14-0 win over Gibraltar.
After qualifying, the French settled for a draw in Greece. They started 2024 with a loss to Germany in a friendly, their second defeat to them in a few months. They won 3-2 against Chile, but not convincingly. Recently, they showed better form by thrashing Luxembourg 3-0.
Canada – the shape of the team and its analysis
The "Maple Leafs" sparked some optimism by finally returning to the World Cup, though they lost all three matches. In 2023, they exited both the Gold Cup and CONCACAF Nations League in the quarterfinals, losing to the USA on penalties and Jamaica on away goals.
This year began with a 2-0 victory over Trinidad and Tobago, securing their Copa America spot. Preparation for the tournament is in Europe, reflecting coach Jesse Marsch's experience with European clubs. They started well against the Netherlands in Rotterdam, holding them to 0-0 at halftime before the Dutch took control.
