France produced a stunning second-half comeback to defeat Belgium 4-1, with Michael Olise scoring twice as the hosts turned the game around in emphatic fashion.
Belgium took the lead in the 35th minute when Dodi Lukébakio finished after Roméo Lavia created the opportunity. France dominated possession but went into the break behind despite controlling much of the game.
The second half belonged to France. Désiré Doué levelled the contest in the 77th minute after being assisted by Lucas Da Cunha before Rayan Cherki completed the turnaround four minutes later, with Michael Olise providing the assist.
Olise then took centre stage. The France attacker struck in the 88th minute with his right foot after another excellent delivery from Doué, putting France 3-1 ahead.
He completed his brace in stoppage time. Doué created the opportunity before Cherki played the key pass, allowing Olise to finish with his left foot and seal a 4-1 victory.
The result highlighted France’s attacking depth, with their substitutes making a decisive impact after Belgium had initially frustrated them.
Olise has also been involved in another notable France result, scoring a stunning goal as France drew 1-1 with Italy. His attacking quality has continued to make him an important player for the national team.
