France's 4-1 win over Australia on Tuesday night filled a World Cup stadium with gasps over the French art on display. “We could have scored more. But it’s a very good beginning to the tournament,” French manager Didier Deschamps said.
It had to get here without two players anyone would covet — the injured Paul Pogba and N’Golo Kante — and then bid adieu for now to another, Karim Benzema, who withdrew Saturday with a torn muscle. It had Lucas Hernandez go off early after a tangle along the route to the Australian goal that jolted the place after nine minutes.
On 31 minutes, Mbappé and Rabiot managed to get the ball away from Nathaniel Atkinson, so that Mbappé could back-foot it in a blur to Rabiot, and Rabiot could move to the left of the box and cross to the front to Giroud, who eased it into the net.
