It's cata, it's cata, it's catastrophe. The U20 France team conceded its second defeat in two games on Thursday in Mendoza, Argentina. After South Korea (2-1), it was Gambia who folded Landry Chauvin's Blueberries on the same score.

Tokyo Olympics tunes

Last in Group F before their last match, the Habs will have to beat Honduras at all costs on Sunday, and cross their fingers to hope to finish among the four best third of the six pools to play the 8th final.

For now, their "epic" looks more like the fiasco of the Olympic France team at the Tokyo Games, with its baroque composition, than the adventure of the U20 generation Pogba and Umtiti, victorious of the 2013 World Cup.
