Olivier Giroud

France duo Ousmane Dembele and Olivier Giroud have been slammed by popular publication L'Equipe after a dismal showing in Sunday's World Cup final.

France did end up mounting a comeback against the run of play thanks to their refreshed attack. [The duo started alongside Kylian Mbappe](https://www.sportbible.com/football/kylian-mbappe-france-argentina-world-cup-f1-treatment-379138-20221218) as part of an attacking three against Argentina at Lusail Stadium, dropping the worst performances of their international careers. At just 23 years old, he has 12 World Cup goals.

L'Equipe are known for pulling no punches when it comes to their player ratings, and the French newspaper have delivered again after last night's World Cup ...

“The striker did not see the light of day against an Argentine defence which dominated him even in the air, usually a strong point of Giroud. “He was put in the wind by Angel Di Maria before committing a questionable foul in the area to give away a penalty. Giroud barely touched the ball before being subbed off by Didier Deschamps before half time, while Dembele was ineffective, losing the ball a lot, and also gave away a penalty with some rash decision-making.

[Dembele](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/ousmane-dembele) was [torn to shreds by British pundits](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/ousmane-dembele-france-world-cup-28763079) for his calamitous role in a disastrous first half for Les Bleus. [Have Your Say!](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/ousmane-dembele-world-cup-final-28769694#comments-section) What did you make of Dembele’s final performance? I'm torn between one, I think it's a soft penalty but also stupidity and to get on the wrong side, you deserve to be found out. The penalty, I have to say, Dembele, although he’s a wide player, what he does, this initial challenge… Di Maria's position, well done to the manager, it's a genius selection, it's stretched that French team. "[Alexis] Mac Allister has been in that pocket, they’ve (France) not been able to cope with it. Offensively, all of his first checks ended up at the opposing feet.” Argentina targeted France's right flank, with Jules Kounde not a natural right-back and Dembele offering minimal defensive protection. Messi has come to the right-hand side. Randal Kolo Muani and Marcus Thuram were introduced for Dembele and Olivier Giroud. It was a forgettable 41-minute cameo role for the [Barcelona](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/fc-barcelona) forward, who [was widely criticised for his performance](https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/ousmane-dembele-world-cup-final-28763154).

[Argentina](https://sportsbrief.com/facts/teams/16181-argentina-national-football-teams-players-coach-fifa-world-rankings-world-cup-more/) while Giroud barely had a touch of the ball, before both players were substituted in the first half after France had gone 2-0 down.

Dembele was handed the start in the final as part of the familiar front three with Golden Boot winner Kylian Mbappe and former Blue Olivier Giroud.

He won none of his duels and lost possession on seven occasions before being brutally but fairly hooked before half-time. On both a personal and collective note, his sloppy touch from a simple short pass set the tone for Les Bleus’ performance. [despite the club also bringing in fellow Chelsea target Raphinha.](https://www.thechelseachronicle.com/news/report-55m-player-who-rejected-chelsea-in-the-summer-seriously-worrying-staff-at-his-new-club/) [Thomas Tuchel was reportedly keen ](https://www.thechelseachronicle.com/transfer-news/report-tuchels-target-disappointed-with-chelseas-four-year-deal-offer/)on bringing in the winger over the summer, with it seeming as if he was surplus to requirements at the Nou Camp. His clumsy challenge brought down Angel di Maria for an early penalty.

[L’Equipe](https://www.lequipe.fr/Football/Article/Les-notes-d-argentine-france-messi-mbappe-le-duel-legendaire-a-eu-lieu/1370809) decided that the duo didn’t even deserve a rating out of ten.
