The Chelsea player started in midfield and completed the 90 minutes as Les Bleues overwhelmed their neighbours.

Kelly Gago put France ahead just after the quarter-hour and Manchester United striker Melvine Malard doubled that advantage before the break.

Sakina Karchaoui made it 3-0 and Malard then completed the scoring and her hat-trick with two late goals, securing a dominate win in Valenciennes.

Sandy Baltimore was an unused substitute and will hope for minutes when France play Brazil in a showpiece friendly in Grenoble on Friday night. France’s Euro 2025 campaign then gets underway with a mouthwatering meeting with England on Saturday 5 July.
