France 1-2 DenmarkFrance manager Didier Deschamps brought back most of the regulars after a win over South Africa, as Karim Benzema was recalled to partner Kylian Mbappe upfront.
Nkunku had an immediate impact for Les Bleus, as he setup Benzema six minutes later to eventually break the deadlock. The Red Devils were without number one goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois but were in full strength in all the areas of the pitch, including Kevin De Bruyne, Eden Hazard and Romelu Lukaku. Memphis Depay doubled the lead for the visitors early in the second stanza with a strike across shot-stopper Simon Mignolet after a cross by Berwijn.
