MATCH EVENTS:

0’ France won 6/6 games so far with a GD of 13:1 and are guaranteed 1st in the group.

Gibraltar lost 6/6 games so far with a GD of 0:21 and are guaranteed last in the group.

Griezmann starts so he continues his insane streak and plays the 83rd game for France (also including friendlies) in a row without missing any or being an unused sub in any since June 2017.

The game in Gibraltar between these 2 sides ended in a 0-3.

A Fun-Fact: Lee Casciaro is 24 years older than his team-mate Nicholas Pozo and even 25 years older than his opponent Warren Zaire-Emery.

3’ 1-0 for France, Clauss delivers a low fast cross into the 6 yard box and Ethan Santos clears it into his own goal.

4’ 2-0 for France and it’s another own goal. A seemingly undangerous pass from MbappĂ© towards the box of Gibraltar gets dangerous cause Griezmann is the only one chasing after it. He runs into the box and shoots, the GK saves Thuram and Mouelhi chase the rebound and in the end Mouelhi seemingly got the touch which brought the ball over the line from very short range. At least Uefa credited it to the defender for now.

8’ Thuram with a huge chance, he is 1 on 1 vs the GK but he bottles it as he doesn’t shoot it but passes to MbappĂ© who has 3 defenders who covered him and therefore didn’t even get near the ball.

9’ next chance for France but MbappĂ© shoots it over the goal.

Btw I just checked on Sofascore and they credit the 2nd goal to Marcus Thuram, so it was probably not an OG.

16’ 3-0 for France. Gibraltar get counter attacked by France. Coman passes it to WZE who scores from 5 meters but might have gotten injured in that orocess. Red card check by VAR even.

18’ Red Card for Ethan Santos from Gibraltar. Not his best day I would confidently claim. Zaire Emery will be subbed off.

20’ Youssouf Fofana comes on for Warren Zaire Emery. Even though my german commentator insists it’s Boubacar Kamara from Aston Villa
 Let’s see when he will notice, probably only if the direction tells him on his ear.

As another commenter mentioned the record for highest win in WC qualifiers of Europe is 13-0 from Germany vs San Marino, Jens Lehmann scored in that game.

25’ Coman receives a beautiful pass by Fofana but shoots it over the top corner.

26’ Griezmann almost completes a beautiful team goal but his header misses the target: long cross by Theo Hernández from the left, Coman lays off the volley from the right into the middle and Griezmann directly takes the header.

28’ The veteran Casciaro handled the ball in his own box, there’s a VAR check and the referee decides penalty for France.

30’ 4-0 for France. The captain Kylian MbappĂ© Lottin takes it and scores bottom left while the GK jumped to the right. He now has as many goals for Les Bleus as Antoine Griezmann (44). Only Thierry Henry (51) and Stupid Sexy Giroud have more (54). Lee Casciaro got a yellow card.

The highest win by France in the last 100 years: 10-0 vs Azerbaijan 1995.

34’ 5-0 for France. Jonathan Clauss bangs it in from well over 20 meters after France played a corner short. MbappĂ© collects the simple assist for that beautiful goal by Clauss who also “assisted” the own goal in the 3rd minute.

36’ Well, this is stressful for me. 6-0 for France. Hernandez crosses the ball from the corner of the box. Gibraltar can’t clear the ball away properly and it is presented perfectly for Coman who shoots it in from 5 meters. The goal withstood the var check for offside in the build up.

37’ 7-0 for France. “Kamara!” No it was Fofana but my commentator is genuinely that stupid to still think it’s Boubacar Kamara with the shirt number 19. Similar to Clauss goal a low strong shot from outside the box, but this time it’s a bit closer like about 20 meters. MbappĂ© gets the assist again.

39’ Rabiot almost scores with a header.

And my commentator still didn’t get it, you could see the name on his shirt in multiple angles now.

7 different goalscorers so far btw

43’ Coman tries a long shot but misses the goal by approximately 15 meters.

45’ MbappĂ© gives the GK props for saving a shot of him, huge chance but he was rightfully flagged offside anyway.

Half Time Gibraltar really stabilized themselves after that 7-0

46’ The game restarts, there are no substitutions, UEFA has by now also declared the 2-0 to Marcus Thuram.

49’ Massive news LMAO my commentator (german DAZN) did admit that Fofana came on and not Kamara and he also scored the 7-0 not Kamara. He blames the kit numbers for the confusion lol.

52’ Thuram’s header after a Coman cross goes wide, this was already his 2nd chance in the 2nd half.

53’ After a beautiful combination through the middle Griezmann is 1 on 1 vs the GK, he tries to cheekily chip it over the GK who is already on the ground but the ball seems to fly in slow motion and he doesn’t get higher than half a meter so the keeper while sitting on the ground manages to sweep the ball away like an annoying fly and France miss another big chance.

57’ Big chance for Thuram and in the end it’s a goal denying goal line clearance by Gibraltar’s number 4.

60’ Somewhat of a goal attempt by Gibraltar.

61’ Julio Ribas brings on fresh legs: Joseph Chipolina off, Jayce Olivero on, Liam Walker off, Ethan Jolley on. Yet another Ethan apparently.

63’ 8-0 for France. Adrien Rabiot shoots it in from 4 meters after a scramble in front of the goal after a corner kick. The 8th different goalscorer of today.

65’ 9-0 for France. Coman is the first to get his name in the goals sheet twice. a one-two with MbappĂ© and a shot that is deflected by a defender gets him his 2nd goal of the day.

67’ 3 substitutions by France: Adrien Rabiot off, Olivier Giroud on, Marcus Thuram off, Boubacar Kamara on (now for real), Kingsley Coman off, Ousmane DembĂ©lĂ© on. Deschamps subbed off 4 players and all of them scored at least 1 goal by the time they were taken off.

71’ The game is interrupted for a Gibraltar player who got a ball in his face. From a pass
 from his own team-mate. Meanwhile La Ola is making its round through the stadium.

73’ We have the double digits. 10-0 for France!! Ousmane DembĂ©lĂ© with a goal, that is trademarked by him. He cuts in from the right fakes a left-shooted foot by which he cuts to his right foot and shoots it low perfectly in the far corner. The UEFA graphic has a hard time to handle this number haha and


74’ 
11-0 for France. Theo HernĂĄndez cuts it back from the goal line and MbappĂ© converts from 6 meters.

The commentator says this would be France’s highest win ever but he also repeatedly said that they defeated Denmark with 17-1 or sth like that around 1917 so I am not sure what he means.

78’ 12-0 for France. (the Germany - San Marino record is in danger now). MbappĂ© lays it off well for Giroud who shoots from around 15 meters and the low shot perfectly bounces in from the right far post. Mbappé’s 5th goal contribution of the day, Olivier Giroud’s 55th goal for Les Bleus. But the goal is still checked by VAR Idk why.

80’ Offside by Giroud in the build up, no goal, no 12-0, right decision in my opinion, the Gibraltar defender had a more or less accident touch so it doesn’t lift the offside.

81’ Dayot Upamecano off, William Saliba on and for Gibraltar: Tjay de Barr off, James Coombes on

82’ 12-0 for France. Kylian MbappĂ© with an absolute screamer and now his 5th goal contribution of the day for real. He spontaneously shoots it from probably over 40 meters and the GK just can’t get back enough to save the long shot. Shades of Federico Dimarco and this one Azerbaijanian guy vs Denmark recently.

Lol worldfootball.com credits Lucas HernĂĄndez with the assist for the 11th goal! Lucas HernĂĄndez is on the bench and was never subbed on today.

France are passing it around the back, “back” means 30 meters from Gibraltar’s goal in this scenario.

89’ 13-0 for France, the Germany - San Marino record is tied now. A ball over the backline from Fofana for the in-running Griezmann, he lays it off 1st touch with his chest for Giroud who cunts it in for his 55th goal for Les Bleus now for real. It’s Griezmann’s first direct goal contribution of the day.

90+1’ 14-0 for France, the Germany - San Marino record is broken. And France have added another banger to the spectacle. Theo Hernández with a thundercunt which the GK saves by parrying it high into the air. Giroud takes the ball at a height of about 2 meters with his foot(!) with an overhead kick and scores by that from very close range.
