Late Olise goal gives France win over Belgium

In a thrilling match, France secured a 1-0 victory over Belgium in the Nations League, with Michael Olise scoring the winning goal in the 88th minute. Zinedine Zidane's side, making it two wins from two, came into the game after a previous triumph against Turkey. The French manager made nine changes from the Turkey match but needed to rely on his bench to overcome the resilient Belgian defense.

Olise, playing as a Bayern Munich winger, embarked on a brilliant run in his own half, bypassing a defender before calmly slotting the ball into the bottom corner. Despite having several chances, France found it difficult to capitalize, especially without their injured striker Kylian Mbappe. Desire Doue was their standout player, with five shots, one hitting the crossbar, while debutant Lucas da Cunha also hit the post.

Belgium's wingers Mika Godts and Dodi Lukebakio posed a threat but were unable to break through an inexperienced French defense. As the tournament progresses, France now sits atop Group A1, set to face Italy, while Belgium will take on Turkey.
