Aurélien Tchouaméni and Marcus Thuram dealt another blow to the Republic of Ireland’s Euro 2024 qualification hopes with a routine 2-0 win in Paris.
The pair struck either side of half-time at the Parc des Princes as France maintained their perfect start to qualification with a fifth successive Group B victory. Ireland, on the other hand, have just three points from their first four games and Sunday’s clash with the Netherlands in Dublin could all but decide their fate.
