Adli and Co through to U21 EURO quarter-finals
After three wins in three group matches, France, with Bayer 04 player Amine Adli in the squad, deservedly progress to the quarter-finals in the U21 EURO tournament in Romania and Georgia.
The Les Bleus youngsters started the tournament last Thursday with a game against Italy. Amine Adli came on as a substitute on 79 minutes in a 2-1 win to play his first minutes in the tournament. France then played Norway three days later. Adli scored the only goal of the game on 57 minutes and was substituted shortly after that.
The team under coach Sylvain Ripoll were impressive on the third matchday in Group D: The match against Switzerland on Wednesday night ended in a 4-1 victory. Adli missed the game due to a one-match ban. The win against Switzerland saw France round off the group games with three wins in three matches and end the first stage as clear winners.
