France: France made a number of changes to their starting line-up, according to Deutsche Welle. Stars Paul Pogba and Antoine Griezmann were back in while Olivier Giroud and Dimitri Payet were rested. In the other match, in Lyon, Romania were trying to build on their lone point, while anything short of a victory would doom Albania, on zero points, to an early trip home. Switzerland benched luckless striker Haris Seferovic in favor of 19-year-old Basle forward Breel Embolo. Les Bleus soon asserted themselves, though. France started on the front foot, but it was Switzerland with the first chance in minute 8, as Pogba was just able to keep the ball away from Johann Djourou after confusion in front of France goal.
