Striker Giroud sent the French into the lead, the best representative scorer of his country scored his 54th goal in the national team. Shortly before the break, Mbappé added insurance from the penalty spot, and Mouelhi's own goal closed the scoring in the end. The pick of the Gaelic Rooster could have added more hits, but he hit the goal structure four times. The French have still not conceded in the qualification, on the contrary, Gibraltar is waiting for the first hit and a point.
The world vice-champions await on Monday in the next duel of Group B Greece, which has a full number of points after two matches. Today they beat Ireland 2:1 at home, Masuras decided in the 49th minute.
The position of great favorites was also confirmed by the English, who decided against Malta with three goals in the opening half hour. First, Apap scored an own goal, and then Alexander-Arnold and Kane added “glued” goals. The Albion captain has made his mark in his last 11 Euro qualifiers. In the 82nd minute, Wilson scored another goal, again from the penalty spot.
In the “English” group C, the biggest turnaround of today's program took place. Ukraine was losing by two goals on the field of North Macedonia after an hour of play, but in the end won 3:2 and got the first points. Cyhankov scored the winning goal in the 83rd minute. Starting at 2:2, the home team played in a weakened state without the expelled Musliu.
The Swiss won by two goals after Freuler and Amdouni scored in the first half, but in the end they were unexpectedly afraid of winning against the outsider of Group I. Andorra reduced the deficit in the 67th minute thanks to substitute Vieira, but lost 1:2, just like in the mutual duel in the qualification seven years ago.
After the complete third round, Group H is unprecedentedly balanced. Denmark has 1 after the home win: 0 over Northern Ireland six points as well as Kazakhstan who beat San Marino 3-0. Both teams also have six points from today's duel between Finland and Slovenia (2:0).
