Winger Dembele sealed the victory with an angled shot from inside the box 12 minutes from fulltime after being nicely set up by fellow youngster Kylian Mbappe. France had fought back to lead 2-1 at halftime, after defenders Samuel Umtiti and Djibril Sidibe each scored their first goal for their country. The trio gave the England defence a hard time on several occasions, notably Mbappe, who rattled the crossbar with a curled left-foot shot shortly before setting up Dembele for his maiden goal for France. "We scored a goal with 10 men against a good England side, which is quite an achievement," Deschamps told a news conference. Prior to kickoff, fans at the Stade de France paid tribute to the victims of the recent militant attacks in Manchester and London.
